One of the many things to consider when purchasing New and Used
Handicap buses for Sale is the needs of your passengers. We must
remember to include all of the bus passengers, including the handicapped
that would need a handicap bus or ADA compliant bus.
This is especially true if you are searching for a Paratransit bus
for the assisted living. Assist rails and low steps, wide center aisle,
comfortable seats, and wheelchair lifts are many of the items
needed by the elderly, disabled, or assisted living. For people who are
wheelchair bound a wheelchair lift bus would be appropriate.
Handicap buses equipped with wheelchair lifts
also have special anchoring devices in the floor and walls to secure the
wheelchair in place once the wheelchair is lifted into the bus. A
Handicap Bus, or Paratransit Bus will allow you to use
your bus to include those who might otherwise be left at home.
Assisted living centers who take their residents to doctors visits and
shopping should consider a wheelchair lift bus or
handicap bus for sale a "must have". A paratransit bus for sale
can be used to include the wheelchair bound on field trips or any other
traveling adventure.
Churches may use a handicap bus to provide transportation to
those members who may be staying at home because they have no other way to come
to church services or special church events. Often the elderly or disabled stop
participating in church activities because a safe reliable handicap bus
is not available to them. If you are in the market for
church bus sales see our church bus page.
Before passage of the American with Disabilities Act of 1990 ( ADA ),
paratransit was provided by not for profit human service agencies and public
transit agencies in response to the requirements of the US Rehabilitation Act of
1972. With the passage of the ADA in 1990, all US transit providers are now
required to provide "complimentary" paratransit to destinations within 3/4 of a
mile of all fixed routes and are also required to have handicap
accessible buses. Although this is a great law and service, many of our
handicap citizens find it awkward and uncomfortable riding with strangers and
limit their outings.
