Transportation Scheduling Issues/Conflicts
•Following Governor’s Phase I & II, APTA and CDC recommendations.
•Prior to COVID: Provided chartered/taxi transportation to individual agencies
•Rural transportation agencies are not permitted to provide chartered, or Taxi services. Providingthese services may risk future federal and state funding amounts.
•Currently no formal agreements to provide charter/taxi transit to these agencies. Riders aretreated individually (grouped), but agency operating hours affect other demand requests
•Charter/taxi operations cause staff to deny on average 3-4 demand response requests per day.
•At current levels, life essential transportation services are priority. Dialysis, Medicaid, nutritional,and pharmaceutical transportation requests dominate our schedule.
•Individual agencies have begun requesting transportation. With current social distancingrequirements, HARTS does not have enough vehicles/drivers to meet the demand.
•Available demand response seats would immediately be filled by these agencies, if we continue tocharter/taxi.
