Metro Call-A-Ride is the paratransit service provided for people who are elderly and/or disabled in the city of St. Louis, St. Louis County, Missouri, and St. Clair County, Illinois. The service has been operating since 1987.

Description

This service consists of a fleet of 120 paratransit vans that do not travel on planned routes like MetroBus and MetroLink. It provides over 55,000 trips each month to customers with disabilities in Missouri. Call-A-Ride provides service within 1/4 mile from a bus stop. The paratransit service was introduced in 1985. They are kept in the Metro Main Shop.
