UAB Parking & Transportation offers a van service for students, faculty and staff with mobility impairments. Blaze Ride is offered in collaboration with Disability Support Services (DSS) and the AWARE Disability Management Progam.

Students, faculty and staff with temporary or permanent impairments and who provide appropriate documentation can receive the personal service. The program is for Blazers with impairments that affect mobility and which may potentially include sensory impairments or medical disabilities such as severe asthma or arthritis that may cause impairment. Once approved, users can access the service by calling 30 minutes prior to desired pick-up time and the Blaze Ride van will arrive anywhere within safety escort boundaries. The van will then drop off at any facility on campus.

To register, faculty and staff should call the AWARE Disability Management Progam at 205-975-9973; students should call Disability Support Services at 205-934-4205.
