Amazing driver

I just want to let you guys know Rick the drive just dropped me off is a very friendly person made me feel safe in the vehicle and had a very good conversation keep him around

Paratransit

I am trying to make sure my daughter’s Paratransit rides for tomorrow are cxed. I call hear the long explanation then get disconnected. It says use the app but the app doesn’t deal with Paratransit. I feel like I am a hamster on a wheel. Like be paratransit but hard to use.

Best app!!!

I’m beyond happy with this service, will be a lifetime customer.

USELESS

Cannot use he app to schedule a paratransit ride. The routing is heavily biased to the limited fixed route bus system. The pickup/drop off maybe more than a mile away, even if your profile is marked wheelchair. Rides on the the on demand service are not guaranteed, even during posted hours of operation.

Has expanded service to more of the city and makes it easier to get around, get more places, and plan my bus trip
