Access-A-Ride

MTA New York City Transit Access-A-Ride (AAR) provides millions of trips a year for eligible customers in the New York City area. Some people use AAR occasionally, while others use it on a regular basis. AAR does its part to make our city accessible to everyone. If you plan to visit New York, we hope to be of service to you too.

What is Access-A-Ride?

AAR provides transportation for people with disabilities who are unable to use public bus or subway service for some or all of their trips. It offers shared ride, door-to-door paratransit service. AAR operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week in New York City’s five boroughs: The Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island.

Where does Access-A-Ride go?

If you are eligible to become an AAR passenger, you can use the service to go anywhere in NYC. You can go to medical appointments, your senior center, theater, movies, place of business, even to visit friends.

How much does it cost?

The one-way fare for each registered passenger and each guest is the same as the regular full fare on mass transit.
