Connect-A-Ride is administered with funding from the Montgomery County Department of Transportation.
Connect-A-Ride offers free half-day workshops that help Montgomery County residents aged 50+ get confident and comfortable taking public transportation. Participants learn how to read the Metro map, understand digital schedule signs, load a fare card, and where to find a station’s emergency and accessibility features. The workshops run about three hours and include classroom training, a trip on a Ride On bus, a visit to a Metro station, and a one-station round-trip train ride.
Advanced registration for the workshops is required. To register or for more information, call 301-738-3252 or email ConnectARide@AccessJCA.org.
