Sept. 9, 2019
The Taxi Connect Easy service is targeted to senior citizens, veterans and disabled who prefer services like Lyft and Uber.

The Northwest Valley Connect (NVC) is introducing a new service, Taxi Connect Easy, to its West valley community residents who are 65 years and older, veterans and disabled who prefer the convenience of using Uber or Lyft for same day services or advance requests.

NVC Transportation will schedule a Lyft or Uber ride, monitor the trip and assure safety for the service. NVC cost for the service is $4.00/trip. Lyft charges approximately $10.00 for five miles and NVC cost would be $4.00 above the Lyft charge.

NVC continues to grow as a result of value in the transportation culture of residents seeking transit mobility while attending to health service appointments, grocery shopping and social events. NVC services are designed to sustain and enhance lifestyles for individuals and communities.
