METROLift
Metropolitan Transit Authority of Harris County, Texas
Runs fixed-route transit: ADA paratransit required
This agency runs fixed-route bus, bus rapid transit, light rail, so it must offer ADA complementary paratransit (49 CFR 37.121). Its 2024 NTD demand-response report did not set the “ADA eligible” flag, so confirm the program name and rules with the agency.
