Flex Ride Service Plan Development

The Town of Erie is proud to announce its new Flex Ride program, coming early 2024, thanks to a grant from the Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG), the premier transportation planning entity for metro Denver.

Introducing Microtransit

Think of microtransit as an on-demand public transportation system:

• Matches trip requests in real time, reminiscent of services like Uber or Lyft.
• Operates within a concentrated geographic zone compared to expansive regional fixed-route systems.
• Utilizes compact vehicles that don’t follow set routes, usually completing trips in under 30 minutes.
• Ensures minimal walking with pick-ups and drop-offs within a block or less.
• Easy trip booking through a dedicated smartphone app, or a call-in option for non-smartphone users.
