Evaluation of East Gainesville's Microtransit Mobility Project

The objective of the project is to evaluate the Gainesville microtransit program and to develop guidance for other Florida transit agencies about where microtransit could be deployed in their communities. This guidance will consider the connection between microtransit and other forms of transportation – first-mile, last-mile service, conventional transit and paratransit – and services for various demographic groups.
