Where do you need shuttle, vanpool or other flexible transit options?

4/3/2025

 
Picture
Metro is studying how smaller, more flexible transit options, called community connectors, can help connect more people to transit routes. Help identify destinations you cannot reach by transit today, especially areas where you think these services could better link your community to existing bus, MAX and WES Commuter Rail stops. Take the survey (also in Spanish), by May 4.

Community connector transit is a type of public transportation that typically uses smaller vehicles— often shuttles or vans—to get people to work, school, shops, the doctor or parks. Community connectors are often more flexible than traditional buses, allowing for off-route pickups and drop-offs or on-demand requests whenever and wherever needed (similar to services like Uber or Lyft). This flexibility can help people travel to light rail stations or frequent bus routes that may be a mile or more away from their homes or destinations.
