TDA 4.5 Document E(a) Page 7 The Pleasanton Paratransit Service Riders' Guide is mailed to all existing clients. It is also distributed to all new clients, local businesses, medical offices, the library, and senior housing complexes. The fifth annual PPS Transit Fair was held March 17, 2010, and included transit providers from around the Bay Area. Residents had an opportunity to learn more about a variety of transit resources. The Access Alameda Transit Guide, developed through ACTIA, is also distributed to all new paratransit clients. The City of Pleasanton web site (www.ci.pleasanton.ca.us) includes a paratransit information page and paratransit applications are now. Local transit information is coordinated through collaborative marketing efforts with LAVTA. All Pleasanton Paratransit Service printed materials include information about the services offered by LAVTA, and vice versa. WHEELS route information and passes are available at the Pleasanton Senior Center. Regular outreach meetings are held with LAVTA staff at local senior housing complexes. These mini transit fairs are very popular. In addition, the PPS Supervisor attends LAVTA's Wheels Accessible Advisory Committee meetings. Senior and Disabled BART passes are also sold at the Pleasanton Senior Center. Additional staff time has been allocated to provide monthly outreach to local senior housing complexes, community organizations, and the local business community in an effort to market the Downtown Route service. Special event transit articles are featured in local newspapers. PPS is listed in the Tri- Valley Pocket Guide for Human Services that was distributed to over 8,000 people in both Spanish and English.
