USER GUIDE • PARATRANSIT SERVICE

Welcome aboard !I am very proud to present the new edition of the paratransit User Guide. This guide is dedicated to you, our customers. It contains all the information and advice you need to help you plan your trips.

We hope this user-friendly guide will make your paratransit trips easier and smoother.

The RTL offers paratransit services to close to 5,000 people in compliance with the Politique d’admissibilité of the Ministère des Transports, de la Mobilité durable et de l’Électrification des transports.

It is also gradually implementing its plan to make the regular network universally accessible. For more information on this topic, please see page 26 of the guide. This means that people with functional limitations now have access to an increasingly efficient and accessible transit service, allowing them to lead fulfilling academic, professional and social lives.

In closing, I encourage you to consult the User Guide on a regular basis whenever questions arise about the paratransit system.

Colette Éthier, Chairman of the RTL Board of Directors

Our servicesThe RTL offers paratransit services by minibus, accessible taxi or taxi car.

It is also up to the driver to assign seats in the vehicle, depending on the specific needs of each person. You cannot request a specific seat.

The RTL tries to respond to as many transportation requests as possible and does its utmost to offer a convenient, comfortable service.

Pairing trips and punctuality of all are essential to delivering an efficient service.

Changing a reservationSeven days a week, at 450-670-2992, option 1, menu 1

You must call our Dispatch Centre to change a reservation :

• No later than 7 p.m. the day before for a local trip• At least two days before, not including the day of the trip, for a metropolitan trip

Same-day tripsA change to a planned same-day trip must be made at least two hours before departure, as of 6:30 a.m., and is subject to vehicle availability.

RTL recommendationThe RTL recommends that you plan your medical, business and leisure trips whenever possible :• Between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.• After 6 p.m.This will ensure greater scheduling flexibility.

15


Cancelling a reservation7 days a week, between 9 a.m. and 7 p.m. at 450-670-2992, option 1, menu 2

Please let the RTL know at least 60 minutes before the start of the time slot if you must cancel a reservation.

Allow a 90-minute advance notice when cancelling a metropolitan trip.

Cancellations without reasonable notice or upon the vehicle’s arrival deprive other users of a place on board the vehicle.

AbsentIf you are not present at the departure point for your trip, your return trip is automatically cancelled. To keep it, you must inform a Dispatch Centre representative no more than 30 minutes after the end of the time slot for which you were absent. For example, if you are absent for a planned outbound trip between 12:30 p.m. and 1 p.m., you must call us no later than 1:30 p.m. to keep your return trip.

If you must be absent for your return trip, we ask that you advise the Dispatch Centre. A new return trip will then be scheduled according to vehicle availability.

What you need to know :The RTL will contact users who repeatedly fail to show up for their trip or who cancel at the last minute.

Cancelling a trip without reasonable notice reduces vehicle availability and prevents other users from having access to a place on board the vehicle. It is important to keep your reservation as this makes it possible to provide reliable service to everyone.

Note that drivers are not permitted to change established schedules or routes.

16

Personal attendantsWhen analyzing your admission request, the eligibility committee may, according to the Paratransit Eligibility Policy, authorize you to be accompanied by a personal attendant during your trips.In this case, you must :• Mention his presence when you make your trip reservation• Indicate whether he has a functional limitation (manual or motorized wheelchair, walker,

cane, etc.)Personal attendants (except for mandatory attendants) must pay for their trip.Your personal attendant must always get on and off at the same places as you.

Personal attendant on the regular RTL networkEligibility for paratransit service also allows you to be accompanied when using the regular network. However, you must show your paratransit OPUS card to the RTL network bus driver and pay your fare. Your personal attendant travels free of charge.

Pick-up at destinationTo ensure the safety of users with an intellectual disability or mental illness, a “pick-up at destination” requirement may be entered in the file. This procedure is mandatory and means that a person with this requirement must be met by a responsible person (age 14 or older) at destination.

A user who is autonomous enough to be left alone at destination may obtain an exemption from this requirement. To request an exemption, a declaration of autonomy for transportation purposes must be filled out by a recognized professional.

For more information about this procedure or to request a form, please contact the paratransit department at 450-670-2992, option 3, or consult our website at http://rtl-longueuil.qc.ca/en-CA/rtl-paratransit-service/our-services/.

If you are in a public place, you must wait in the area indicated when you made your reservation and make sure you are visible to the driver. If there are several doors to the building, make sure to specify the exact location when making your reservation.

Pick-up timeThe Dispatch Centre always confirms a 30-minute time slot for pick-up.

Make sure to be ready at the beginning of that time slot so as not to be late or to miss your pick-up time.

The driver is not authorized to wait for you or change your reservation.

Arrival at the destinationArrival at the destination is based on the requested time. However, situations beyond our control (weather, traffic, user cancellation, etc.) can cause the trip time to fluctuate.

You are responsible for checking opening hours at your destination.

Helpful tips (cont.)Help provided by the driverThis is limited to the assistance required to get you in and out of the vehicle. You can depend on the driver’s help for the following :• Cover the distance between the vehicle and the entrance door

of your point of origin and destination• Get in and out of the vehicle• Store your mobility aid in the trunk• Cross the threshold on the ground floor of your point of origin

or destination

Make sure you know in advance the accessibility status of the buildings you will be visiting.If you use a manual wheelchair and there is no access ramp, or if there are more than three (3) consecutive steps to go up, you must be able to clear this obstacle on your own or with the help of someone other than the driver.

Must be able to climb up and down on your own, or with the help of someone other than the driver

Drivers are not allowed to accept tips.

21


Use of a manual wheelchair

If you use a manual wheelchair and you take a standard taxi, you must be able to transfer from your wheelchair to the taxi seat without help from the driver or an attendant. The driver will place the wheelchair in the trunk. If you are unable to do so, your trips will always have to be by minibus or wheelchair-accessible taxi.

PunctualityThe RTL is committed to providing on-time service, but given the nature of the trips, following the schedule requires a certain flexibility on the part of the user.

If a vehicle fails to arrive, please report the delay using one of the following means :• Calling the Dispatch Centre at 450-670-2992, option 1, menu 2 (travel info)• Visiting our website (see page 7)We also ask that you notify the Paratransit department.

Always wait for the end of the pick-up time slot

before reporting a delay.

22

Safety measuresAccessibility of locationsThe access ramp must be in good condition and compliant with established standards. A location must be accessible at all times for getting on and off. The trip may be cancelled if a location is deemed unsafe.

Maintenance of building entrances and exitsBuilding entrances and exits must be kept free of snow and ice in winter, otherwise the trip may be cancelled unless you are able to get to the vehicle on your own.

Seat beltsThe driver must enforce the use of seat belts, which are mandatory for all trips aboard paratransit vehicles. The driver must ensure that they are properly fastened. A seat belt (upper torso restraint) must be worn across the chest by users travelling in wheelchairs (a wheelchair seat belt will not protect you in the event of an accident). The driver will assist you if you cannot fasten your seat belt yourself.

Refusal to use a seat belt will result in the immediate cancellation of your trip. Only persons with a seat belt exemption certificate issued by the Société de l’assurance automobile du Québec are not required to comply with this obligation. A copy of the exemption certificate must be sent beforehand to the RTL Paratransit department.

SmokingSmoking and the use of e-cigarettes by the driver or users is strictly prohibited on board vehicles.

23


Behaviour on board a vehicleThe paratransit team is committed to providing on-time, reliable and safe service, in a respectful manner, on a daily basis. Inappropriate behaviour on board the vehicles will not be tolerated.

Baggage and shopping bagsBaggage, shopping bags and folding shopping carts are allowed if the driver does not have to handle them, and if they do not take up additional space. Baggage must not hinder circulation on board the vehicle (must be stored on your lap or at your feet), and you must be able to handle it without the driver’s help. The rear cargo area of vehicles is reserved for mobility aids only.

Safe transportation of children in a minibusAny child shorter than 63 cm when seated, measured from the buttocks to the top of the head, must sit in a car seat appropriate for his height and weight (infant seat, child seat, or booster seat). The parent or guardian provides the seat, which the driver will install in the vehicle, and retrieve it when you exit the vehicle. The child must be buckled into the seat by the parent or guardian.

Guide or service dogYou are allowed to travel with a guide dog or a service dog. When making the trip request, report the presence of the animal. On board the vehicle, the animal must always wear its harness. The user is responsible for control of the animal at all times and the animal must obey commands. The driver can help with getting on and off without, however, taking charge of the animal.

PetsPets are required to travel in a closed cage or a carrying bag placed on your lap. This rule does not apply to guide or service dogs.

24

Accessibility – RTL universelThrough its universal accessibility policy and the actions set out in its accessibility development plan adopted in 2012, the RTL aims to ensure a gradual increase in accessibility of the regular network for people who get around in a manual or motorized wheelchair, or using another mobility aid. While the regular network represents another option for paratransit users, it does not replace this service. It simply allows them to choose the type of transportation that best meets their needs.

It also makes it easier for users with a functional limitation to get around on the regular network using a walker, cane, guide dog, or a stroller, for example.

Under the banner , the Réseau de transport de Longueuil offers increased flexibility while allowing users to be more autonomous and spontaneous.

An increasingly accessible networkIn addition to identifying the specific needs and obstacles faced by our users with reduced mobility, the RTL works with numerous associations and municipal authorities in developing its services.

The interior of the low-floor buses are designed for these specific users, and the front of all buses can be lowered to make it easier to get on and off.

The RTL’s regular network currently has 8 universally accessible lines. Other lines will be added in the coming years.

For more information and to find out the list of accessible lines, visit our website at rtl-longueuil.qc.ca/rtluniversel.
