RYDE (Reach Your Destination Easily)
RYDE was launched in 2017 to bridge the gap in public transportation for first and last-mile service.
It is an affordable, safe curb-to-curb transportation and local trip planning service for adults 65+. It can be used for appointments, grocery shopping, or other local trips.
The program is jointly operated by SASCC and West Valley Community Services.

Testimonials

“RYDE has allowed me at the age of 80 to continue doing everything I was doing at 79 and younger! They are absolutely fantastic, they do a great job at getting the best people for their service, they are caring, intelligent, I can’t speak enough good things about RYDE. In a day and age where you spend a lot of hours on hold trying to get good customer service, RYDE has always been 100% responsive and helpful. I love them all, they have become part of my family.”

“If RYDE wasn’t an option, I would have to take the bus, but that is difficult for me because the bus stop is far away from where I live, and I live independently. RYDE is very good for me. The staff is friendly.”

“If I didn’t have RYDE, I wouldn’t really get around. It would be hard. With other services, it’s so hard to get a ride, you have to wait a long time. RYDE has helped me a lot; without them I wouldn’t be able to get my groceries.”
