Ratings and reviews

Been using this app for a few years for the ParaTransit bus systen. with the new update on the microtransit being more on demand I decided to give it a try. So far so good.

I liked micro transit at the start but lately it is awful since I can never get a bus. I wish the fixed route system was still in place because it was at least reliable.

This is the worst transit system I've ever experienced. Make sure you schedule everytime three hours before, especially if you have to transfer. The drivers like to pick people up early, regardless of your "pick-up" time. If you're not there, they "no-show" you, saying that it's your fault, you should be there when you scheduled. Besides that, the system is completely unreliable. It's humans making the mistake. Instead of doing their job and following the manifest, they don't do their jobs.
