Description
Ohioans with disabilities have difficulty obtaining safe, affordable, and appropriate transportation. In 2012, the Ohio Developmental Disabilities Council funded the Athens on Demand Transit (AODT) project. This project has been successful in offering a transportation option in a rural area of Ohio (Athens County).
To further these efforts, this project will:
• Conduct a pilot program, using technology when necessary, that allows AODT to provide rides outside of Athens County.
• Work with interested counties to replicate the project.
