Though paratransit has advanced significantly since riders having to call in days in advance for a ride, transformation of paratransit to combat existing challenges is ongoing.
Spare and Uber recently announced their respective partnerships with Uzurv and GoGoGrandparent to increase transit options for seniors and people with disabilities.
The solution links Spare’s Open Fleets module with Uzurv’s mobility platform to book trips and provide reporting that includes real-time data.
Beginning August 22, elementary and high school students will also be able to ride Pace, Metra, and CTA for free.
The integrated solution is in active service for fully FTA compliant ADA paratransit rides and provides real-time data available in the Trapeze product suite.
The agency has also delved into electric buses, focused on growing its operator pool, and implemented a fare free system for the fiscal year to help the riding public.
