You may qualify if you are a Bucks County resident between the ages of 18 and 64, can provide written verification of disability, and you need transportation beyond SEPTA'S ADA service area. For more information regarding SEPTA'S ADA complementary paratransit service, please call 215-580-7145 for SEPTA ADA Customer Service or visit their website.
Bucks County Transport BCT.pdfWhat is CCT?
CCT Connect is SEPTA's complimentary paratransit operation. It provides two types of door-to-door service for registered customers by advance registration:
Shared Ride Program (SRP) for Philadelphia residents over the age of 65, funded by the Pennsylvania Lottery.
ADA program for people who are functionally unable to use the regular accessible transit system for all or some of their transportation needs, in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and related regulations.
SEPTA's CCT Connect operation handles administration, takes reservations, prepares schedules, dispatches, and monitors service for Philadelphia, Bucks, Chester, Delaware, and Montgomery Counties. SEPTA has contracts with transportation contractors that maintain SEPTA's fleet of CCT vehicles, hire drivers, and transport our customers.
Where and when can I travel using CCT?
ADA program service mirrors travel on the regular fixed route bus and light rail (trolley) system. There are no restrictions on trip purpose or frequency of travel.
Suburban Counties: Registered customers may be picked up and dropped off within 3/4 of a mile of any fixed route, whenever and wherever they operate. If a bus operates 24/7, then CCT Connect service operates 24/7. If there is no evening or Sunday bus service, there is no evening or Sunday CCT service. Please note that changes to bus routes may change the service area.
