Community Transportation
Community Transportation is limiting its service due to the present Coronavirus situation to only dialysis, cancer treatment and meals on wheels. If you are receiving any of these services, other than meals on wheels, we ask that you contact your medical provider to see if they can provide individual transport or seek out the assistance of a family member. We will continue to provide the aforementioned services, however, if you are able to make alternative arrangements please do so and notify our office immediately. Otherwise, please stay well and keep safe during this unprecedented time.
Please join us on November 16, 2020 at 10:00 AM for the SCDRTAP Annual Public Hearing. Please click here.
The Division of Community Transportation was created to provide a safe, trouble-free, scheduled transportation system for persons with disabilities, seniors, and frail residents of Bergen County.
Service is provided in a professional, timely, courteous, and caring manner in all types of weather. Service is door-to-door, when possible, and is provided by drivers who are specially trained to assist seniors and persons with disabilities.
This vital service is life sustaining for our clients with serious medical and health needs; a lifeline to homebound clients who are delivered nutritional meals daily, and a link to social services for clients who would otherwise be isolated and alone.
Current services provided by the Division include transportation for:
- Routine medical visits
- Meals on Wheels
- Community outreach/activity center
- Driving people to their places of employment
- Recreational activities
- Shopping
- Education
- Post-stroke support groups
- Physical therapy
