The primary purpose of the Resource Guide is to provide practical planning and operating assistance to fixed route transit agencies that are deciding whether or not to commingle their ADA eligible paratransit riders with 'other' paratransit riders and, if so, how to implement the practice. 'Commingling' ADA and non-ADA riders is a newly coined term for a practice that has been operating in many communities since transit agencies began operating paratransit services required by the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA). For this project, 'commingling' is defined as 'routinely transporting ADA eligible paratransit riders with 'other' non-ADA paratransit riders on the same vehicles at the same time.'
