Service Animals

Service animals are allowed on FRTA vehicles
but must be kept at on the floor, at the
passenger’s feet.
The ADA requires the animal to be under the
control of the handler and must be
housebroken. FRTA may exclude any service
animal (but not the rider) from vehicles or
facilities when that animal’s behavior poses a
direct threat to the health or safety of others.
Service animals must not occupy passenger
seating.
Service animals must not block the aisle or
path of travels for passengers.
An animal which solely provides emotional
support, well-being, comfort or companionship
is not a service animal. These “companion
animals” are considered pets and pets are
allowed aboard FRTA vehicles and facilities
only in secured and fully enclosed carriers.
Pets are subject to the rules above regarding service animals.

Are all of the FRTA Buses lift equipped?
All fixed-route FRTA buses are wheelchair accessible
