The Office on Aging is the principal agency for the certification of Howard Transit's HTRide/Paratransit service for older people. Seniors, or people age 50 and disabled, can call the Senior Information & Assistance line to complete the certification process. The certification process is free. People can use HTRide for a variety of destinations, including medical appointments and senior centers for a small fee.
