Solano County ADA Eligibility Program
If you are unable to use regular, fixed route transit because of a disability, becoming ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) certified will give you access to several transportation options that are significantly less expensive than using private, curb to curb shuttles or medical transportation and will reduce the reliance on family or friends to get you around.
Once you have received your ADA card, you can apply for our Intercity Taxi Card Program that provides subsidizes taxi rides for ambulatory and non ambulatory people.
This program ensures ADA paratransit service is reserved for individuals who truly need service in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Title 49 Part 37.123.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where are applications accepted and processed?
Applications for the Clipper Access card are accepted at San Francisco Bay Area transit agency locations and forwarded to a central office. The Central Processor then reviews and verifies applicant information and prepares a card that is printed and mailed by the Clipper program.
What if I am 65 or older?
If you are 65 years of age or older, you qualify for a Senior discount, which is the same discount offered by the Clipper Access card. If you are a Senior and have a qualifying disability, you will not be issued a new or renewal Clipper Access card. The application process for a Senior Clipper card is easier and quicker than for the Clipper Access card, and the Senior card does not need to be renewed.
The Clipper Access Program no longer issues cards to seniors. The Senior Clipper card offers the same features and discounts. You can obtain a Senior Clipper card at your local transit agency. The card is free and does not expire.

Do I need to show identification in addition to my Clipper Access card when I use it?
No. When you receive your Clipper Access card, you will be immediately eligible for reduced fares on all participating transit systems. No additional proof of eligibility is required, but you must show the Clipper Access card at the time you pay the fare.
Can I get the card same day?
No. The card can take up to 21 days to be processed and sent out.
