Two-Region Mobility on Demand Partnership, Seattle, Washington and Los Angeles County, 2017

The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority and Puget Sound transit operators are planned to partner with Lyft for a pilot program, Two-Region Mobility-on-Demand Partnership. The pilot program is aimed at exploring the viability of using Lyft to provide first/last mile solutions for trips originating and ending at select transit stops. Customers will be able to use a mobile app or call a dispatcher phone number, providing equity to individuals who are either unbanked or non-smartphone users. This pilot program is one of FTA’s MOD Sandbox 1.0 program.
