Handicap Accessibility

TANK is handicap accessible to provide transportation for the disabled community. The lift-equipped vehicles meet Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements. Individuals who use mobility devices (such as a wheelchair or scooter) must conform to the "common wheelchair

dimensions as set forth under the Federal Register, vol. 56, No. 173, 1991, Rules and Regulations. Briefly, a "common wheelchair
is not larger than 30 inches wide, 48 inches long, and not more than 600 pounds, when occupied.

Our transit vans offer curb-to-curb service. The driver will assist individuals in safely boarding and exiting from the vehicles. Individuals with mobility impairments who need special assistance in navigating to and from the vehicle should have a Personal Care Attendant (PCA) ride with them.

Safety

Your Bus Operator cannot drive until all passengers are safely seated, so please find a seat as quickly as possible after boarding. Standing while grasping a handhold is permissible.

Please hold small children and fold strollers for the trip. Nothing can be left in the aisles. All riders must remain seated or holding on and use the seat belts when provided.

Please wait until the bus or van is safely stopped before you leave your seat. Operators, like all drivers, must sometimes stop quickly.

TANK officials reserve the right to refuse service or remove anyone who jeopardizes the comfort and /or safety of other customers.

Transfers

When you need to change buses to reach your destination, the second half of your ride is always FREE. Just ask your first Bus Operator for your FREE BUS TRANSFER. If you're not sure which bus to transfer to, ask your original Bus Operator. FREE BUS TRANSFERS are issued when you pay the fare and are valid for 50 minutes after issue.

Travel Tips

Arrive 3 - 5 minutes before the bus is scheduled to reach your stop.
Sometimes buses run late due to traffic congestion, so please be prepared to wait 5 - 10 minutes past the scheduled pick up time.
Buses will board riders at designated bus stops only, so look for the TANK signs at street corners.
Signal the operator that you want to get off the bus by pulling the signal cord. Please give the bus operators enough notice so that they may stop smoothly.
Buses will only stop at bus stops to ensure safety. Remain seated or grasping a handhold until the bus comes to a complete stop.
Please reserve seating at the front of the bus for senior citizens and the handicapped. If the bus is full, courteously offer your seat to those who are unable to stand while the bus is moving.
Service dogs for the hearing and visually impaired are allowed on the bus. They are not pets - please do not attempt to approach or pet them.
Radios must be listened to through earphones only.
During inclement weather, the buses may not be able to stay on their regular schedule. Please call (770) 538-2601 for more information.
Not all bus stops will be on the side of the street that you need. Please use care and exercise caution while crossing streets.
