Beginning in September, UZURV will roll out service across Minnesota’s Metro Mobility service area for the Premium on Demand program with a network of drivers compliant with all federal, state, and local regulations required by the program.
Metro Mobility is the paratransit service for the Twin Cities metropolitan area, including the cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul and surrounding communities in Minnesota.
Metro Mobility has a long history of innovation in same-day, rider choice paratransit, first launching the precursor of the current Premium on Demand program back in 2004.
Currently the program allows eligible riders to schedule rides in advance or same-day, with their choice of provider for each ride. The program subsidizes trips up to $20 per ride, with riders paying a $5 copay and any costs above a $25 fare. Riders receive an estimated out-of-pocket cost at the time of booking.
“Metro Mobility’s service provides the community with a wonderful on-demand assisted mobility option for paratransit riders in the Twin Cities region, offering riders their choice of quality providers for same-day on demand service,” says Ned Freeman, CEO of UZURV. “We are honored to have been selected to be part of the program and look forward to doing our best to serve the community well.”
UZURV facilitates accessible, door-to-door transportation with drivers who complete background checks, drug screenings, and who are onboarded to provide sensitive service for people with disabilities and older adults.
Metro Mobility riders will book and manage rides with the free, fully accessible UZURV Ride app or through the UZURV call center. The program will include wheelchair accessible vehicles.
