Call-N-Ride Shuttle to UC Health Campus
To assist customers in getting to work or meeting their medical needs at UC Health, Greeley Evans Transit will extend the service area to include the UC Health Campus only, and not to include any other areas passed by or affected by the extension of this service area.
Eligible Paratransit Customers
Greeley Evans Transit will provide the standardized door-to-door service to the paratransit customers needing to go their doctor or meet their other medical need(s) and choosing to go to UC Health. If the conditions of eligibility for the trip do not meet the conditions listed for a conditionally eligible customer, the customer must then follow the procedures for the general public. No changes are necessary to the current process of scheduling a paratransit ride.
General Public
Greeley Evans Transit will provide a standardized curb-to-curb service for customers needing to go their doctor or meet their other medical need choosing to go to UC Health. The customer may call into GET dispatch at least a day in advance, and up to 14-days in advance to set up a Call-N-Ride trip. Same day trips may be accepted, subject to vehicle and seating availability.
The round trip will be scheduled to pick up the customer at the Greeley Mall Transfer Center or the Greeley Evans Regional Transit Center. The vehicle will take the customer to the main entrance of the UC Health hospital and return to the respective transfer centers. To maximize efficiency, customers with appointments within the same reasonable time frame will be scheduled together, with the potential of being dropped off up to one hour before the appointment and being picked up as late as one hour as the requested time. It is the responsibility of the customer to make sure they are at the proper location for pick up at the scheduled time provided by dispatch and any transportation means to meet that scheduled time. The customer is also responsible for any transportation necessary after they arrive upon return at the Greeley Mall Transfer Center or the Greeley Evans Regional Transit Center and getting to their next desired destination.
The first time a general public customer calls in to place a trip request, the customer will have to build a profile. Additional questions of the customer may be asked including, but not limited to: Name, Mailing Address, Phone Number, E-Mail Address, Mobility Status, etc.
Seating Capacity
Depending on the vehicle being dispatched, seating capacity on our Call-N-Ride vehicles is up to four ambulatory persons or up to two persons in wheelchairs. Due to this limited seating capacity, it is very important to let the scheduler know if you are bringing a guest or Personal Care Attendant (PCA) with you on your trip.
Fares
Each rider will be charged $3.00 per person, each way for this service. Fare policies established for guests and Personal Care Attendants will apply. Transfers from the fixed route service to the Call-N-Ride service will not be valid, as the Call-N-Ride vehicles are not equipped to accept or produce transfers. Customers using passes (24-Hour, 31-Day, 90-Day, Annual, etc.) will not be able to utilize them on this Call-N-Ride service for the same reason. Customers may purchase bulk Call-N-Ride tickets or punch cards to use for the listed price (currently $48.00 for 20 rides).
No Show/Late Cancelation Policy
The current policy applies to all riders of this Call-N-Ride service. Any cancelation within two-hours of the scheduled time will be considered a late cancelation. Any person who does not show for their appointed time will be deemed a no-show. Excessive late cancelations and/or no shows will results in suspension from utilizing any applicable Paratransit and Call-N-Ride service.
Bicycles
Due to the inability to properly and safely secure bicycles on the Call-N-Ride vehicles, bicycles will not be allowed on board. They can be locked up at the bike racks at the Greeley Mall Transfer Center or the Greeley Evans Regional Transit Center and retrieved upon return.
General Public Pickup and Drop-off Points
The pickup and drop off point at the Greeley Mall Transfer Center will be at the Transfer Center Island. If necessary, the alternative points will be at the movie theater on the south side.
The pickup and drop off point at the Greeley Evans Regional Transit Center will be at Bus Bay #8, near the entrance of the transit center off of A Street.
The pickup and drop off point at the UC Health campus will be the curb in front of the main parking lot to UC Health on 29th Street.
Travel Training
Travel Training is designed to teach safe and independent travel on a public transit system.
Travel Training will focus on the fixed route bus system and teach the skills needed to navigate around the community with confidence and ease. A Travel Trainer will help participants experience and understand public transportation.
