Abstract:

This discussion of the regulations that affect paratransit applications, focuses on institutional changes necessary to foster the development of paratransit and outlines a specific approach for accomplishing those changes. The profile of the regulatory framework is reviewed from the point of view of rationale and justification for regulation and the determination of who is to be regulated. The profile chart of the regulatory framework including regulators and their characteristics and areas subject to regulation is also reviewed. An outline of the regulatory framework in relation to paratransit modes and the provision or lack of provision of adequate treatment under the existing regulatory framework for such modes identifies and discusses certain practical problems. The principal areas that require further review are the jurisdictional matters, the areas that are subject to regulation, and the degree of enforcement of such regulations. Recommendations are presented with regard to the options available to facilitate the development of paratransit.
