Four Solano Mobility Programs Impacted by Potential Suspension of Uber and Lyft Operations in California

 Suisun City, CA – In response to the recent ruling by the California Superior Court, Lyft and Uber are anticipated to suspend operations in California as soon as Friday, August 21, 2020. The suspension of services provided by Transportation Network Companies (TNCs), such as Uber and Lyft will impact Solano Mobility Programs which utilize TNCs as transportation providers.

The four Solano Mobility Programs impacted by the suspension of Uber and Lyft’s operations in California are:

1. The Solano Older Adults Medical Trip Concierge Service, which partners with GoGo Grandparent (operated by Lyft and Uber) to provide Solano County residents aged 60 and older subsidized trips to medical appointments (hospital, dentist, chiropractor, pharmacy, etc.), within Solano County
2. The Solano Mobility First/Last Mile Commuter Program, which offers program participants with subsided Lyft rides to and from transit hubs in Solano County
3. The Amtrak + Lyft Pilot Program, which offers program participants an opportunity to try commuting to and from Solano County with a 10 Ride Capitol Corridor Pass and Free Lyft First/Last Mile Connections for $20
4. The SolTrans Benicia Subsidized (Lyft) Program, which pays a portion of a qualified program participant’s Lyft fare for rideshare trips that start and end within designated locations in the SolTrans service area

Program participants should contact the Solano Mobility Call Center at 800-535-6883 or visit www.solanomobility.org for the latest updates on modifications to these programs or for information about alternative programs.
