Accessibility & Eligibility

Paratransit/Reduced Fare Eligibility

This service does not have complementary paratransit because it is a door-to-door service, not fixed route. All Marq-Tran door-to-door buses are lift-equipped and fully accessible to wheelchair or other mobility device users.

Seniors (60+), Students, and Veterans with valid identification are eligible to ride Marq-Tran door-to-door buses at the reduced fare rates. Individuals with disabilities must fill out a verification form that requires a physician’s signature to be eligible for reduced fare. This verification form is the same one that qualifies individuals to use Marq-Tran complementary paratransit services for the fixed route buses. You can call Marq-Tran at 906-225-1112 to request the disability reduced fare verification form be mailed to you or get one from the Marq-Tran office at 1325 Commerce Drive, Marquette, MI 49855.
