In this powerful episode of Beyond the Curb, Paul Amadeus Lane and Andy Arias sit down with Andrea Jennings — actress, commissioner, and disability inclusion strategist — to talk about the life-changing impact of reliable, affordable, on-demand accessible transportation for people with disabilities. From workdays and filming schedules to community events, civic engagement, and personal independence, Andrea shares why transportation access is about far more than getting from point A to point B. It is about opportunity, dignity, freedom, and full participation in everyday life. Paul Amadeus Lane and Andy Arias also explore the key differences between traditional paratransit and same-day, on-demand wheelchair-accessible services, the barriers that still exist for disabled riders, and what a truly equitable, disability-led transportation system should look like.
This is an important conversation about accessible transportation, disability rights, wheelchair-accessible vehicles, independence, inclusion, mobility equity, and policy change. In this episode, we discuss: Accessible transportation for people with disabilities Traditional paratransit vs. on-demand ride services Wheelchair-accessible transportation and independence Disability inclusion in transportation policy Mobility access, affordability, and response times Reducing social isolation through transportation equity What an ideal disability-led transportation system could look like If you care about accessibility, disability justice, transportation equity, independent living, and inclusive communities, this episode is for you.
