CAMBUS services are accessible to persons with a disability and all vehicles are equipped with kneelers and wheelchair ramps.
For those who cannot use the fixed-route system due to their disability, CAMBUS also operates ADA paratransit service - Bionic Bus. The Bionic Bus is a door-to-door, demand-response service provided with ramp-equipped mini-buses. Just as with Cambus fixed-route service, there is no fare to ride the Bionic Bus.

The Bionic schedule is set to reflect the hours of operation that fixed CAMBUS routes operate. See the online CAMBUS Service Calendar to determine what type of service is being operated on a particular day.
