New Tools Available to Dial-A-Ride Clients

We’re excited to continue expanding the ways Dial-A-Ride clients can manage their trips and stay connected to their transportation.

Dial-A-Ride clients can now sign up for text or voice notifications that provide helpful reminders about their trips. These notifications can remind clients about upcoming trips, alert them when their vehicle is on the way and alert them to important information. Call 970-416-8042 to enroll in notifications.

We’ve also launched the Dial-A-Ride Passenger Portal - a convenient way to manage transportation online. Through the portal, clients can make trip reservations and manage their upcoming trips without having to call the reservation line. Registration is easy! Use the link above to sign up for an account.

These new tools are an important step toward giving Dial-A-Ride clients more flexibility and control over their trips - while also helping us modernize the way we deliver paratransit service.
