Better understanding of MCTS and what it offers.The results of the Freedom on Wheels program encompass many things: During the ride, participants practice what was discussed in the classroom. Part two involves a tour of a MCTS bus and a short ride to get a real hands-on experience of riding a bus.
The classroom instruction focuses on transportation options, accessible fare forms, proper etiquette on the bus, rules, safety, and route planning.
They would like to thank the MCTS staff who helped make that happen – Daniel Jahn (Driver), Jessica Jahn (Travel Trainer), Jo-Ellen Douville (Travel Trainer) and Chris Fox (Mobility Coordinator).įreedom on Wheels is a two-part presentation – part classroom and part ride. Everyone learned a great deal and had a lot of fun. Goodwill’s Community Opportunities Club South recently participated in a Freedom on Wheels seminar in the classroom and ride around Southridge Mall in Greendale. Through this program, MCTS staff go out into the community, at no charge, to teach individuals about bus transportation. Milwaukee County Transit System (MCTS) realizes how valuable reliable, affordable, accessible transportation is to individuals, which is why they have a program called Freedom on Wheels. An important step to that independence is transportation, whether it aids in getting to a job or helps in having a more fulfilling personal life. Goodwill’s mission is to help individuals with disabilities or disadvantages who seek greater independence.
