  • 2291 E. Rancho Vistoso Blvd. (corner of Vistoso Blvd. & Vistoso Commerce Loop)
  • Riverfront Park on Lambert Lane

Accessability

In addition to Coyote Run, there are other regional services for seniors and individuals with disabililties. Handi Car is part of the Pima County Special Needs Program provides transportation to persons with disabilities who reside in the unincorporated area of the County within the special needs eligibility area. Specific information, maps, and eligibility requirements are contained on their website.

Sun Van, Tucson’s paratransit agency since 1987, provides transportation service to those individuals unable to use Sun Tran’s fixed route service due to their disability. Sun Van is available to individuals with disabilities with a current ADA Eligibility Card issued by the City of Tucson.

The ability to travel is important to everyone, so all Sun Tran buses offer accessibility features for any rider requesting the service.
