About
Open Door
--
a division of IndyGo’s Flexible Services
Indianapolis Public Transportation Corporation, or IndyGo, provides a valuable service to citizens of Marion County. Its Fixed Route and Flexible Services operate in every township of Marion County (excluding the City of Lawrence where limited Closed Door service is provided). Open Door, IndyGo’s reservation-based paratransit service, serves the needs of customers who, because of a disability, are unable to use IndyGo’s regular fixed route system and who meet the criteria established by the U.S. Department of Transportation under the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990.

IndyGo Taxi Voucher Program - New Program In order to meet the growing demand of public transportation for the disabled community of Indianapolis, IndyGo is introducing a Taxi Voucher Program starting Tuesday, July 1, 2008. IndyGo joins many cities across the United States who have started similar taxi voucher programs to assist in the daily demand of transporting the public. Open Door Paratransit riders will be eligible to purchase 10 vouchers per month at the cost of $3.50, the same price as a single ride on Open Door. When you are ready to use your taxi voucher, you will call a taxi company who will pick you up and transport you to your destination within Marion County. IndyGo cannot refer clients to a particular taxi company. Please download the following forms to learn more and order vouchers!

About The MAC Committee The Mobility Advisory Committee (MAC) is a group of volunteer Open Door customers who meet monthly in an advisory capacity to IndyGo. The group assists in policies regarding the operation of Open Door service. Meetings begin at 1:00-2:30 pm the 3rd Thursday of each month and are held in the IndyGo Boardroom, 1501 West Washington Street. All meetings are open to the public. IndyGo is currently in the process of revising the Mobility Access Committee (MAC). Bylaws for the committee were approved at the last IPTC board meeting on January 28. The MAC is being restructured to enable the group to better represent the needs of individuals with disabilities throughout the IPTC service area and to advocate for the transportation needs of those individuals. The MAC will advise IPTC on the provision of public transportation services for individuals with disabilities and provide education to the general public about these transportation needs. Once the new committee is finalized, MAC meetings will be held quarterly in the IPTC Board Room. Meetings will provide a forum in which consumers, employers, organizations and elected representatives can raise concerns, ideas and propose solutions for improving transportation service and mobility options to individuals with disabilities. To apply for membership on this committee, please download the membership application. Complete the application and submit it to Jill Russell before Monday, March 1. By mail, send to 1501 W. Washington Street, Indianapolis, IN 46222. Email a completed application to jrussell@indygo.net. Call 317-614-9214 with questions.” |
