This $1,473,595 Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Transit Administration (CFDA 20.513 - Enhanced Mobility of Seniors and Individuals with Disabilities) will support transportation services for seniors and individuals with disabilities in the St. Louis, Missouri-Illinois urbanized area.
The funding will be administered by the Bi-State Development Agency and passed through to various local nonprofit organizations and transit providers as subrecipients. The services to be provided include demand-response door-to-door and door-through-door transportation to essential destinations such as medical appointments, as well as piloting innovative wayfinding technologies to improve transit accessibility. These activities are intended to enhance mobility options and remove barriers for the target population beyond the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
