Municipality of North Grenville, Ontario: NGtransit On-Demand Transit Service
In partnership with Left Turn Right Turn and Mobility Transportation Services
This on-demand, curb-to-curb transit service in a rural municipality with 18,000 residents was launched in January 2024. The fully accessible service runs seven days a week to help overcome barriers faced by the many individuals who have limited access to employment, healthcare, education and daily necessities. The service uses advanced technologies to optimize shared-ride groupings in real time, and riders can receive trip updates via a mobile app, web portal or phone. In addition to offering a variety of payment plans, the municipality partners with community organizations to provide free fares for needy residents. In its first year, NGtransit provided more than 10,000 rides with levels of reliability and efficiency that earned it an average user rating of 4.7 out of 5. North Grenville has shown that small municipalities can successfully implement flexible, scalable, inclusive and demand-driven alternatives to traditional fixed-route transit services.
