| 摘要： | Paratransit service, known as SweetHART, has grown steadily in the Housatonic Valley Region since it was regionalized and expanded under public auspices in 1978. Eight municipalities receive SweetHART service as provided by the Housatonic Area Regional Transit District (HART). The user base for paratransit service continues to grow within the Region. Persons with disabilities are becoming increasingly more self sufficient and participating more fully in society. Mobility through accessible transportation such as SweetHART is vitally important for this group to maintain a reasonable standard of living. Many municipalities in the Region have experienced steadily increasing numbers of persons age 60 or older who are eligible to use SweetHART. As they grow older, many senior citizens depend on SweetHART service for mobility. The advent of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) has brought new challenges in the delivery of complementary paratransit service. The ADA mandates many paratransit service criteria aimed at ending discrimination against persons with disabilities. Paratransit systems such as SweetHART must make significant strides toward full compliance with the ADA in coming years. |
