Rhode Island Public Transit Authority

Get ready for public transit like you've never experienced before with RIPTA's new pilot program – Flex On Demand! Book a ride from wherever you are in the service area, and we’ll come to you! Affordable, on-demand transit is now at your fingertips. Similar to other on-demand rideshare services, Flex On Demand allows passengers to use a smartphone app to request a ride to and from anywhere they wish to travel within the Flex Zone. Following a ride request, the app will provide an estimated pick-up time, track rides in real-time, and provide an alert upon arrival.
