Pricing for this program varies depending on the service, with a minimum 3-hour call requirement for a quote, and charges may be based on a flat fee, by the mile, or through membership fees. Additionally, the program is a paratransit service, offering assistance with packages or bags and accommodating service animals. Riders can enjoy door-to-door transportation, where a driver can wait for them during errands or appointments, and curb-to-curb service is available as well. The program also includes shared rides, on-demand scheduling, and transportation along fixed routes. Riders are encouraged to plan their trips ahead, with scheduling options ranging from a few days to a week in advance to ensure a smooth and convenient travel experience.
