METRO Connect is Rock Region METRO's on-demand microtransit service that offers affordable and accessible transit options for riders in central Arkansas. This free app allows users to schedule ride-hailing trips within a designated microtransit zone during regular operating hours.

Microtransit is a more efficient solution for areas with emerging or low transit demand, as it provides on-demand shared transit rides using smaller vehicles. With METRO Connect, riders can enjoy point-to-point service within the zone, allowing them to easily reach their desired destinations.

One of the key benefits of METRO Connect is its affordability. Compared to traditional Transportation Network Companies, METRO Connect offers more affordable fares since it is part of the publicly funded Rock Region METRO public transit service. This makes it a cost-effective option for commuters and travelers in central Arkansas.

Additionally, METRO Connect opens up new transportation possibilities by providing access to central Arkansas destinations that were previously underserved by non-paratransit public transit services. This expansion of coverage allows more individuals to conveniently travel to various locations within the region.

To use METRO Connect, simply download the app and schedule your ride-hailing trip within the designated microtransit zone. The app provides zone maps, operating hours, and information about connecting fixed bus routes. Standard METRO fares apply for each trip, ensuring a seamless and familiar payment process for riders.
