Knowledge Base

The Breeze Plus ADA program serves individuals with disabilities that:

• Prevent the rider from independently navigating the fixed route service.
• Require an accessible vehicle that isn’t available on the fixed route service.
• Prevent the rider from reaching the fixed route service.

This is an origin-to-destination, curb-to-curb service model. Breeze Plus ADA service hours are Monday through Saturday, 5 a.m. to 11 p.m. and Sunday, 6:20 a.m. to 10:30 p.m.

Plan:

The Breeze Plus ADA program complements the Breeze fixed route service. Pickup and drop-off locations must be within ¾ mile of a Breeze fixed route.

Clients who have been approved through the application process may call 941-777-6000 to reserve a ride.

• Reservations must be made no later than the day prior to a ride.
• Reservations can be made as early as 14 days prior to a ride.
• Reservations are accepted every day of the week between 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Pay:

Each one-way trip is $3. The driver will accept exact cash or a ticket.* Tickets can be purchased through the MTM office at 1800 N East Ave., Suite 103, Sarasota.

• Registered Personal Care Attendants may accompany Breeze Plus passengers at no charge.
• Up to one guest may accompany Breeze Plus passengers for $3 fare, with or without the presence of a registered Personal Care Attendant.
  

*Tickets will not be accepted after March 31, 2026. Prior to that date, tickets may be exchanged for ride credit at Breeze Administration (5303 Pinkney Avenue, Sarasota).

Ride:

Monitor the pickup location during the 30-minute pickup window. The driver will wait a maximum of 5 minutes for the rider to board. Other passengers may be picked up or dropped off during each trip.

At the rider’s request, drivers may assist with:
