Getting the vaccine starts with getting to the vaccine
The pandemic has been tough on all of us, but it’s been particularly hard on communities that are underserved by public transit, healthcare, and other basic services. It’s our duty to help the best way we can: with rides. We’re working with partners and community members to help provide access to transportation to vaccine sites for people who need it. So everyone can say, “Sorry, COVID, our ride’s here.”
Affordable transportation solutions, effortless payments, and getting all the right people to all the right places. So you can get work done.


With the support of various partners in our community, we’re providing access to free and discounted rides, so people can get to vaccine sites. Learn more about the ride of the century.
