I use paratransit three days a week when I go to work on site or for occasional medical appointments, and have used a service called Go Go Grandparent for seniors. Go Go Grandparent contracts with Lyft and Uber to give rides. I am sick to death of waiting around for lost or late rides, and after yesterday’s presentation from WAMO, it is high time we call our state legislators and city or town representatives to make test sites for WAMO. At least, rides would be there when we want them, and when we wanted to return.
