ADA Paratransit Services

The Central Ohio Transit Authority in Columbus, Ohio is seeking a contractor to provide Americans with Disabilities Act paratransit services. The agency requires a transportation service that is comparable to its fixed-route operations, which currently run seven days a week. The service area for this paratransit program may expand or contract in response to future changes in the fixed-route service schedule. Drivers must collect or verify valid fare media from every passenger upon boarding the vehicle. The selected contractor must perform daily fare reporting for each vehicle, counting and subtotaling the number of tickets, passes, non-payments, cash, and other agency-assigned fare media. The agency is offering a contract period of one year for these services. Eligible bidders must perform all work onsite within the United States. The agency is accepting proposal submissions digitally via email or through their online portal. Bidders must submit all questions regarding this opportunity no later than June 22, 2026, and the agency is currently seeking budget proposals to determine the cost of the contract.
