Accessible Transit
The main objective of accessible transit is to encourage the social, educational and professional integration of individuals with reduced autonomy or living with a disability that does not allow them to use public transit. Our main clients are individuals living with a disability, and the aim is to offer them a level of mobility and autonomy comparable to what is available to the general public.
