Accessibility Policies and Procedures

Accessibility

Sunshine Transit is accessible to persons with disabilities.

Many of our buses and vans are equipped with wheelchair lifts or ramps that enable persons in wheelchairs or persons who cannot navigate steps to ride the bus. Please let us know if you will need us to send the bus with a wheelchair lift.

Buses have priority seating for persons with disabilities.

Operators are trained to assist riders and secure wheelchairs provide information on destinations served and announce stops, including any stop you request.

You may travel with your respirator, concentrator, and portable oxygen.

Service animals are welcome on board buses and vans and in our facilities. (They must be kept under the control of the passenger at all times.)

Public information is available in alternative accessible formats upon request.  To request information in an alternative accessible format, please call us at 907-495-8411 or email us at sunshinetransit@yahoo.com.

Reasonable Modification Policy

Passengers with disabilities may request modifications to current service procedures to access the service.  To make a request, please call us at 907-495-8411 or email us at sunshinetransit@yahoo.com. Please submit requests at least the day before the trip.  Sunshine Transit will not charge additional fees for passengers requiring reasonable modifications.
