ClackCo
The Clackamas Industrial Area and Oregon City Shuttles are free “deviated fixed-route” services. If you can’t make it to the main bus stop or route, call 24 hours in advance to make arrangements and check their availability to be picked up or dropped off within ¾ mile from the route or in the deviation zone. You may also signal/flag the bus to get on or off the bus in-between stops.
SMART Dial-a-Ride
Dial-a-Ride is a SMART (South Metro Area Regional Transit) service providing door-to-door transportation for Wilsonville residents who are unable to use the fixed route service. There are different service categories. Priority is given to Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) eligible customers.
ADA Dial-a-Ride customers may schedule trips up to 2 weeks in advance. ADA customers should schedule their ride at least the day before their needed ride.
Non-ADA customers can schedule up to 2 days prior to the needed ride. Due to high demand, it is recommended that you schedule your trip as early as your eligibility allows, to ensure you can be accommodated. ADA customers have priority in scheduling.
Please note that all SMART buses, not just Dial-a-Ride vehicles, are fully accessible and are able to accommodate all wheelchair and scooters that meet ADA standards of size and weight. Since Dial-a-Ride services are in high demand, individuals are strongly encouraged to use the regular fixed route bus service whenever possible.
