Important Information
  • The O.W.L.S. vehicle is unable to pull into private driveways.
  • If you require personal care or assistance, please arrange for an attendant or companion. Attendants do not have to pay a fare. 
  • Children under 13 who ride without an attendant must be met by an adult at their destination.
Support Persons 

Support Persons apply to both conventional and specialized transportation services. Neither service can charge fares to support persons. People who need assistance from a support person when travelling must demonstrate this need. People travelling with support person(s) need assistance with mobility, communication, accessibility, personal or medical care during trips. Some examples of a support person are personal support worker, a volunteer, a family member, or a friend. A registered OWLS client cannot act as an attendant.

If you are in need of a support person, please have the support person fill out "Section E: Support Person Application" of the Ridership Application.  

Companions
Companions apply to specialized transportation providers. The option to travel with with a companion ensures that people are not required to travel alone. A companion can come with them as long as another person with a disability does not need the seat that the companion would occupy. Companions must pay the fares they would pay if they were travelling on conventional transit.
