The Charlotte Area Transit System (CATS) is seeking a Company to perform Americans with Disability Act (ADA) required complementary paratransit passenger service to augment the existing Special Transportation Service (STS). The Company will meet all Department of Transportation (DOT) Federal
Transit Administration (FTA) and ADA requirements in the safe and efficient service of the assigned passengers.

In accordance with the ADA, CATS offers complementary paratransit services to individuals who, because of a disability (physical, cognitive, or visual), cannot access fixed routes buses. The ADA defines eligibility for complementary Paratransit service in 49 CFR Section 37.123 of the federal regulations.
CATS operates the paratransit system, which is a pre-scheduled, shared-ride, origin to destination service.

This is a nonexclusive agreement. CATS reserves the right to certify other eligible private transportation service companies that apply to participate in the Program.

The term “customer” shall refer to CATS applicants and/or existing CATS clients and their companions or Personal Care Attendants (PCA). The term “CATS Transit System” shall refer to both CATS’ accessible fixed route bus and CATS’ accessible light rail.

The Company shall be responsible for transporting CATS paratransit eligible customers in accordance with the ADA. Disability alone does not determine paratransit eligibility; the decision is based on the customer’s functional ability to use the fixed-route bus and is not a medical decision.

CATS service area is 741 sq. miles and paratransit service consists of over 5,000 eligible passengers and 2,500 active passengers with at least one ride in past 12 months. With currently 700+ scheduled rides per weekday and 200+ on weekends. 25% of trips scheduled involve a customer with a mobility device. As the COVID-19 pandemic ridership is returning to pre-pandemic levels

While the City is flexible with respect to certain elements of the Special Transportation Services (STS) ADA Paratransit Services, the City has specific requirements and preferences for the Service delivery method.

Originating from the Northeast Corridor Infrastructure (NECI) Program, this project proposes to provide a new street connection by extending McCullough Drive from North Tryon Street to the existing dead end at Ken Hoffman Drive. This project will include two travel lanes, planting strips, curb & gutter, asphalt milling and paving, storm drainage, utility relocation, erosion control, bike lanes, sidewalk, Post Construction Stormwater Ordinance (PCSO) underground storage vaults, and retaining wall improvements. This project will improve pedestrian and bicycle mobility between North Tryon Street and W.T. Harris Boulevard.

The purpose of this project is to provide safer pedestrian conditions along Monroe Road from Eaton Road to McCullen Way. Currently, there are two active city projects in the vicinity of this project. This MUP will fill a key gap between these two projects, providing a safer and more connected route for pedestrians and cyclists.

This project will widen the two-lane road to a four-lane median-divided road with multi-use paths between Steele Creek Road and Whitehall Park Drive, and a multi-use path north along Sandy Porter Road to the subdivision at Williams Glenn Road.

The Matheson to Craighead segment of the Cross Charlotte Trail will implement a 14-foot shared use path beginning at E 36th Street. The path will continue down Cullman Ave and board walk up into a pedestrian bridge spanning the Norfolk Southern Railroad tracks utilizing a prefabricated structure within railroad right of way. The structure will then connect to the existing trail built by Brand Properties within the Kaleido Noda apartment complex.

This contract is for the continuous installation of large water and sewer services, as needed, for commercial or residential purposes with a diameter of one and a half inches or larger. Customers apply for quotes for service connection and pay the applicable fees to get into the construction queue. This contract will help meet the demand for these kinds of service connections for the next two years.
