Travel Training

You can learn how to use accessible CTA or Pace fixed route public transportation or Metra, and the RTA can show you how!  The RTA offers travel training to individuals who are eligible for ADA Paratransit and want to learn how to use fixed route or commuter rail services. Once you request travel training, a Trainer will assigned to work with you one-on-one to develop an individual training plan tailored to your travel needs. Trainers can practice specific trips with you, practice maneuvering on buses or trains with your wheelchair or other mobility device, or simply provide an orientation to the accessibility features offered on buses and trains.

To sign-up for travel training, check "YES" to travel training on page 5 of your ADA Paratransit application, advise a staff member during your ADA Paratransit interview that you are interested in travel training or call the ADA Paratransit Certification program at  312-663-HELP (4357 ) or 312-913-3122 (TTY).
