The City of Brandon Transportation Services is proud to announce that they have officially renamed Brandon Handi Transit to Brandon Access Transit.
The name “Handi Transit” was no longer an acceptable name, as it was outdated and unsuitable. To come up with some new naming options, a committee was given the task to prepare three possible names. Through a series of virtual town halls and online voting, the new name was chosen by the residents of Brandon.
Brandon Access Transit Service is for passengers with disabilities who cannot use the regular Transit service.
Service provides:
- Door-to-door transportation within the City of Brandon;
- To and from accessible building entrances;
- Call back service for medical appointments only;
- 24 hour message service for cancellations.
