In accordance with Section 12 of Chapter 11 of the Massachusetts General Laws, the Office of the State Auditor has conducted a performance audit of the Brockton Area Transit Authority (BAT) for the period January 1, 2021 through December 31, 2022.

In this performance audit, we determined whether BAT delivered paratransit services required by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) on time in accordance with Section 37.23(a) of Title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR); Sections 5.3, 5.4, and 5.6 of Chapter 8 of the Federal Transit Administration’s Circular 4710.1; and BAT’s “ADA Paratransit Services Guide.” We also determined whether BAT ensured that all ADA paratransit complaints are investigated and responded to as required by 49 CFR 27.13(b) and BAT’s “ADA Paratransit Services Guide.”

Our audit revealed no significant issues that must be reported under generally accepted government auditing standards.
