With ongoing SEPTA service cuts impacting daily travel throughout the region, TMA Bucks is encouraging commuters to take advantage of the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission’s (DVRPC) Share-A-Ride database to explore reliable commuting options and trip planning assistance.
The free online service (https://sharearide.agilemile.com/tmabucks) helps commuters find alternatives that fit their schedules and locations, including carpooling, vanpooling, and other transit connections. Share-A-Ride not only reduces stress for travelers dealing with reduced service but also helps save money, cut travel time, and lessen traffic congestion.
“Now more than ever, Bucks County commuters need dependable and flexible ways to get where they need to go,” said Stephen J. Noll, executive director of TMA Bucks. “With SEPTA service reductions creating real challenges for families and workers, the Share-A-Ride program offers a practical solution that keeps our community moving and helps everyone stay connected to their jobs, schools, and daily lives.”
The site also includes a trip planner to find rides for a daily commute and show public transit, biking, and other options if available.
Share-A-Ride also incentivizes commuters who sign up and record their trips on the Share-A-Ride trip calendar to earn points that can be redeemed for gift card drawing entries, restaurant coupons, retailer discounts, and tickets to shows and attractions. Users can even set up recurring trips to automatically record to a trip calendar.
Visit the Share-A-Ride web platform at https://sharearide.agilemile.com/tmabucks or download the iOS or Android app and sign up.
