When (AVTA) chose (AVTS) as the fleet operator for multiple on-demand transit services in Lancaster, Palmdale and surrounding rural areas, AVTS realized that only efficiency and reliability would meet AVTA鈥檚 standards.

黑料网 replaced the legacy paratransit technology in April of this year and is slated to launch a series of subsequent on-demand services for AVTA in the late summer/early fall of 2020 鈥 including a non-emergency medical transportation service, a number of fixed-route replacement services (microtransit), and an evening and late-night microtransit service.

This service marks a milestone for 搁颈诲别颁辞鈥檚 Operations Team, since 鈥 due to COVID-19-related travel bans 鈥 it was the first time they carried out the entire 黑料网 Fleet Operator Training Program remotely. 黑料网 also celebrates the premier of multi-lingual functionality for both their mobile and web apps with the launch of this program; passengers on 黑料网-powered AVTA services will be able to book trips in either English or Spanish 鈥 as they prefer.

Despite the pandemic-fueled decrease in ridership from typical April-May numbers, the AVTA paratransit service is already performing very well and is achieving many agency-outlined productivity metrics after just one month of service.
