TRANSPORTATION & LODGING RESOURCES
FOR VISITORS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS


The Nantucket Commission on Disability consists of year-round Island residents with disabilities or are family members of disabled persons. Members are appointed to advise the Town in achieving compliance with state and federal access standards.

As in most communities in the United States, public and private efforts to improve structural and programmatic access on Nantucket are ongoing. One of the projects that we have been involved in is the placing of curb cuts in our downtown area. We hope that by providing transportation & lodging* information you will better know what to expect and where to look for resources, making your Nantucket experience more enjoyable. In all cases of travel, accommodations, etc., we recommend that you call ahead.

Also available Nantucket Island: Guide for Visitors with Special Needs. This unique resource is published by the Nantucket Commission on Disability and is available by contacting the Commission at 508-228-8085 or through the Nantucket Chamber of Commerce (508-228-1700) and Nantucket Visitors Center (508-228-0925).

Best Wishes,
Mickey Rowland,Chairman
Nantucket Commission on Disability
