Because it's a rideshare program, passengers will be matched with other riders in one vehicle headed in the same direction.

Rides must be booked through the Trinity Metro On-Demand app.

Trinity Metro On-Demand said they are also transitioning rideshare service in the Alliance area away from Lyft to Via.
