The New Bedford Commission for Citizens with Disabilities has announced that it will make safety lights available to city residents with motorized wheelchairs or scooters to help improve safety for operators and motorists.
The Commission for Citizens with Disabilities will make the lights available at a cost of $5.00. To encourage participation, the first twenty residents who call and request the safety lights will receive the lights and assistance with their installation at no cost.
Residents may request a light by calling the Department of Community Services at (508) 979-3136.
I have called the phone number given and no answer after 10 rings for two days. I am on a fixed income (disability) and would like to save the $5. by getting in on the first 20. Don’t know if there’s another way to access them by phone or computer contact. Is anyone else having the same difficulty getting through?? Thanks.
