How is NITE RIDE accommodating those with disabilities?
The NITE RIDE driver will stay with the person to arrange for transportation through an alternative resource at our expense. If alternative transportation is not available, they will contact a patrol officer to respond. Other resources that are available include: The Bionic Bus and the Accessible Fixed Route Service provided by Cambus. More information on these services and their operation hours is available at: http://www.uiowa.edu/~cambus/disabled_transit_services.html
