Authorizes taxicabs, limousines, and transportation network companies to provide paratransit services for two-year period.*
This bill (S 360) allows taxicabs, limousines, and ride-sharing services (like Uber or Lyft) to provide paratransit transportation for people with disabilities for a two-year period. It amends New Jersey law to remove the current exclusion of these services from the definition of "paratransit," which previously limited such services to government-run or contracted providers. This change directly affects residents with disabilities who rely on specialized transportation under the Americans with Disabilities Act. The key mechanism is updating legal definitions in transportation statutes to include these providers as eligible for paratransit service.
