This study examines the current environment regarding transit policy for the disabled in light of previous research on conflicts in such policy. In addition, the study documents qualitative and experimental findings from Ann Arbor, Michigan, regarding demand management for paratransit services via pricing and information provision. An experiment was carried out in which the sensitivity of paratransit and fixed route ridership to price adjustments, information dissemination and appeals to good citizenship was assessed. The study concludes that elimination of fares on fixed route transit for people qualifying for ADA paratransit had a moderating impact on the growth of demand for paratransit. Neither information dissemination nor appeals to good citizenship appeared to have any effect on ridership patterns.
