We have seating for 14 passengers, two of which can be for wheelchairs. Wheelchair locks will allow us to accommodate your personal wheelchair. If your child is required to be in a child safety seat in your vehicle, they will be required to be in a child safety seat on the bus. Since it is a state mandate, we will be following the regulations from the Virginia Department of Transportation. Child safety seats are not provided. Sorry, no children on laps. A ticket is required for everyone on the bus, including children.
