The RIde program offers door to door pickup and drop-off services to about 15-hundred people per day.
The new cell phone application will allow passengers to track their bus, as it comes to pick them up. GPS data provides more specific estimated times of arrival. Passengers can also cancel trips via the app. In total some 12-thousand people rely on the transit authority’s RIde program.
RIPTA recently embarked on a campaign to improve it services… conducting surveys, hosting community meetings, to determine possible changes to bus routes and fares.
