Special Needs Transportation

People with special transportation needs are defined in state law as people, including their attendants, who because of physical or mental disability, income status, or age, are unable to transport themselves or purchase transportation. [47.06B.012 RCW]

PSRC established the Special Needs Transportation Committee to oversee the development of the Coordinated Plan.
