Popular in cities, transit trip planning and payment apps are slowly coming to rural communities
- Date: 03/12/2024
Transportation planners in Vermont and Minnesota are working to bring rural transit riders the same app features that urbanites have…
On Jan. 2, Pierce Transit will transition to a new on-demand Runner app for use with its Spanaway/Parkland/Midland, Ruston, and Tideflats zones. The Puyallup Runner zone already uses this new app. Trips can be requested on the new, dedicated app called Pierce Transit Runner or by calling a phone number. Runner is an affordable, on-demand, curb-to-curb, neighborhood transit service, powered by Via, that transports customers in locations that aren't easily accessible by bus. Pierce Transit currently provides Runner service in specific zones in Spanaway/Parkland/Midland, Ruston, Tideflats, Puyallup and Joint Base Lewis-McChord.
