| Since 1976, the Greater Hartford Transit District (the District) has been providing special transportation services in the Hartford region. Today, the District provides transportation for the elderly and persons with disabilities and ADA complementary paratransit service with approximately 60 paratransit buses during peak periods. The District also leases paratransit buses to 29 towns and social service agencies in the Capitol Region for their respective dial-a-ride programs for the elderly and persons with disabilities. This year, the District purchased 15 paratransit buses to replace vehicles that have reached the end of their useful life. The District has been providing transportation to people entering the work force as part of the Capitol Region Partnership's Job Access Program.
On behalf of ConnDOT, it also administers the Statewide Drug and Alcohol Testing Program and Statewide Transit District Insurance Consortium. In addition to providing the above services, the District offers defensive driver, OSHA, and health-related training through its Safety and Training Center. The Center is located in Hartford's Union Station, which the District also owns and operates to serve Amtrak and intercity bus passengers. The District is also managing the Downtown Circulation Planning Project to develop pathways for Transit-Way vehicles and downtown Circulator buses. On behalf of the Capitol Region Council of Governments, the District is overseeing the bus shelter replacement and enhancement programs in several towns and park-and-ride lots.
