Microtransit Drivers’ Stories: Complete Overview

The Shared-Use Mobility Center (SUMC) runs the Mobility Innovation Collaborative (MIC) program in partnership with the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) to share lessons learned from innovative mobility projects from around the country. As microtransit becomes more widespread, many of the conversations have focused on the technologies, software and mobile apps enabling these services.
