Access-A-Ride
The Access-A-Ride (AAR) plan allows you to fund your AAR trips with an OMNY-compatible Edenred Commuter Card. You are eligible for the Access-A-Ride (AAR) plan only if you are enrolled in the MTA Access-A-Ride Paratransit Service or other paratransit service. Within 7-10 days of enrolling in the Access-A-Ride plan, you will be mailed your Edenred Commuter Card. This card is funded with your pre-tax and post-tax payroll deductions. There is a monthly administrative fee of $1.50 that will be paid by the City.
