- The trip type is not covered by one of those programs or a trip request is denied by GMT.
- You do not live on or near (within ¾ mile ‘as the crow flies’ of) a bus route OR the bus does not go where you need to go or, when you need to get there.

There are currently no rider fares for Mobility For All trips. This may be subject to change.
