Essentially, they would use the Federal rules that require Dial a Ride service to be provided within ¾ of a mile from a bus or light rail route. They would plan to initiate this change in July, 2019. They would increase the number of Ride choice trips from 16 to 50 per month; however, these rides would cost only $3.00 per ride if you stay within 8 miles from pick-up to destination.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;"><o:p style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"> </o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">The City is holding several meetings <a href="x-apple-data-detectors://2" dir="ltr" x-apple-data-detectors="true" x-apple-data-detectors-type="calendar-event" x-apple-data-detectors-result="2" style="-webkit-text-decoration-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.258824);">between October 29 and November 17</a> to explain the plan and receive comments.
