The Valley Metro, regional public transportation agency in Maricopa County, AZ, is planned to partner with RouteMatch Software, the City of Phoenix Public Transit Department, and Arizona State University for a pilot program, Valley Metro Mobility Platform. The program will build upon Ridekick, Valley Metro’s existing mobile application. The envisioned Mobility Platform will enable users to receive real-time travel information, purchase tickets for both public and private transportation modes, and utilize an optimized trip planning service through the integration of non-Valley Metro operated services such as Uber, Lyft, GR:D Bike Share, Zipcar, etc. This pilot program is one of FTA’s MOD Sandbox 1.0 program.

Contributed through a partnership between the Shared-Use Mobility Center, ITS America and the Federal Transit Administration’s Mobility on Demand Program.
