However, while physical access is improving, information on which services are accessible and how to access them is less readily available. Persons with disabilities along with travel consultants can now easily assess the availability of accessible transportation anywhere in the country. The transportation database website allows users to highlight the state and city they plan to visit and view all transportation services available to them. Users are also able to view the travel agencies specializing in travel arrangements for persons with disabilities. The database, part of Project Action's Website includes: Public transit operators, Accessible Van Rental Companies, Private Bus/Tour Companies with Accessible Vehicles, Accessible Taxis for Selected Cities, Airport Transportation Selected Airports, Hotel/Motel Shuttles, and National 800 Numbers (Toll free numbers are included for domestic airlines, Greyhound Intercity Services, Amtrak, companies with accessible car rentals, and major hotel chains).
