Can I use my Access Paratransit identification card on Metro Buses and Metro Rail lines?
A. Metro began a demonstration project in September 2000 permitting persons with current photo Access Paratransit identification cards to use their Access Paratransit card for fare-free transportation on Metro bus and rail lines. In addition, if the Access Paratransit rider’s identification card notes that the rider uses a personal care attendant (PCA), someone accompanying the rider may also ride at no cost. Q May a rider board a Metro vehicle with a service animal? A Service, guide or signal animals may board any Metro service.
