The Cheyenne Transit Program (CTP) is the public transportation provider for the City of Cheyenne. Our goal is to provide the best possible transportation service to our customers.

CTP operates two types of service:

• Accessible fixed-route bus service 
• ADA complementary paratransit service 

CTP’s fixed-route buses are lift-equipped, making them accessible for people who use a mobility device or cannot climb stairs. Our drivers receive special training in assisting people with disabilities. Our goal is to make our fixed-route accessible and convenient for everyone.

CTP’s curb-to-curb, ADA complementary paratransit service provides comparable service to our regular fixed-route service for citizens whose disabling conditions prevent their use of the regular bus service (must complete application process), those 60 years of age and older and those with a point of origin or destination beyond ¼ mile of a current bus route, within defined service boundary. Whenever possible, fixed route buses are to be utilized.

Any person who rides onboard a CTP vehicle is deemed to have accepted the normal risks that may be encountered when traveling onboard a public vehicle. CTP staff members do their utmost to operate in a safe and professional manner at all times. Passengers are reminded that sudden stops may occur without warning. Passengers shall remain seated and utilize seatbelts while vehicle is in motion.

Routes may be modified due to road construction, Cheyenne Frontier Days, etc.

CTP’s fixed route service operates Monday - Friday, 6 a.m. - 7 p.m. and Saturday 10 a.m. - 5 p.m.

No service is provided on Sunday.

As a result of a Wyoming Division on Aging IIIB Grant, a voluntary donation of $1 for fixed route service is suggested from passengers 60 years of age and older.

Transfers cannot be used for stopovers or return trips. Monthly passes – unlimited rides for the calendar month, are available at the CTP office at 322 West Lincolnway or can be purchased from the driver.

Who qualifies for the half fare program?

• Persons aged 60 and older (must show ID at time of application) 
• Medicare cardholders (must show card at time of application) 
• Persons who receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI), based on disability, or Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits, as long as they continue to receive these benefits (must show letter of authorization)

CTP offers half fare during all hours of operation on CTP”s fixed route service. Each person MUST complete an application for half fare. Only COMPLETE applications will be considered. If qualified, a half fare card will be issued.

The half fare policy does not apply to CTP’s ADA service or the purchase of monthly passes, punch cards or tokens.

A “service animal” is any guide dog, signal dog or any other animal individually trained to do work or perform tasks for the benefit of an individual with a disability, including, but not limited to, guiding individuals with impaired vision, alerting individuals with impaired hearing to intruders or sounds, providing minimal protection or rescue work, pulling a wheelchair, or fetching dropped items. (28 CFR §36.104)

Service animals are always welcome. The passenger must have the service animal fully under control at all times so as not to disrupt other passengers or the schedule. Service animals may not occupy a seat. Drivers cannot and will not, assume any responsibility for service animals.

In accordance with the ADA, CTP vehicles are designed to accommodate mobility devices that when, measured two inches off the ground are not more than thirty inches wide and forty-eight inches long and weigh no more than six hundred pounds when occupied. If your mobility device exceeds these specifications, we may still be able to transport you. Please call CTP for an evaluation to determine whether we can accommodate your mobility device. Passengers must be in an upright sitting position for transport. All mobility devices must be in safe operating condition.

CTP drivers are specially trained to assist you. Drivers will:

• Deploy lifts and ramps for persons using mobility devices and those without mobility devices who cannot navigate the bus steps, upon request. 
• Secure passengers using mobility devices. 

To ensure your safety and the safety of our drivers, CTP has the following restrictions:

• Drivers will not assist passengers using wheelchairs up or down steps. Please arrange with someone else to assist you. 
• Drivers will not carry packages. 
• Drivers will not dress passengers. 
• Drivers will not search a passenger’s body for the appropriate fare or ticket. 
• Drivers will not clear pathways of ice, snow, or other barriers anywhere, except at Transfer Station. 

CTP has established the following general ridership policies for fixed route service. Many of the policies also apply to CTP’s complementary paratransit service.

• If a passenger uses oxygen, the tank must be portable, i.e., the passenger must be able to carry the tank into the vehicle themselves. If the passenger is in a wheelchair, the tank must be attached to the wheelchair. Once onboard, the portable oxygen tank must ride in a secure location, for example, in the passenger’s lap, in front of the passenger on the floor between seats, or on the floor behind the modesty panel. 
• All passengers must wear seatbelts. 
• Child restraints must be used. 
• Strollers, grocery carts and walkers must be folded and stored out of the aisles. 
• Children may not remain in strollers during vehicle movement. 
• All passengers using a wheelchair or scooter must use the restraint system that is used to secure the wheelchair or scooter to the floor of the vehicle. 
• The number of packages a passenger can have along is limited to the equivalent of four grocery bags, which passenger must be capable of carrying themselves. 
• Large items such as furniture, etc. are not permitted on CTP buses.

In the event of extreme weather conditions which make travel unsafe, CTP may cancel service. This announcement is made public through local media. Therefore, you must tune in to local radio and television, as this is the only notification that will be provided.

As a rider on the CTP system, I agree to:
