The solution links Spare’s Open Fleets module with UZURV’s mobility platform to book trips and provide comprehensive reporting that includes real-time data associated with trip execution and reporting information. The integration is in active service for fully Federal Transit Administration (FTA) compliant, ADA supplemental service rides in the U.S. and provides robust real-time data available to agency partners.
With UZURV, transit agencies across the country leverage a network of non-dedicated owner-operator drivers for ADA supplemental and rider choice programs. Agencies can leverage the flexibility of UZURV’s Adaptive TNC model and pair that with the Open Fleets tool in Spare for transparent reporting across both dedicated and non-dedicated trip providers.
“Our mission at UZURV is to expand transportation opportunities for people with disabilities and older adults through our Mobility Platform and innovative, fully FTA-compliant, TNC model,” said UZURV CEO John Donlon. “Leveraging our respective technologies, UZURV and Spare are able to provide exceptional tools to our agency partners for easy service integration, transparent performance reporting and improved efficiencies.”
Platform integration features:
- Integrated dispatch: Assigned trips are auto dispatched to the UZURV technology platform by Spare. For accepted trips, UZURV driver and vehicle info is visible in Spare, including the drivers’ name, the vehicle color, make, model, year, plate state and tag number.
- Real-time ride status: Real-time vehicle tracking is available in Spare with GPS & timestamp on each status change, including driver en route, pick-up arrived, in progress, drop-off arrived and completed trip.
- Transparent reporting: All UZURV ride execution data is seamlessly available via Spare reporting.
“We are committed to helping transit agencies provide reliable and cost-effective paratransit rides through innovative partnerships,” said Spare CEO Kristoffer Vik Hansen. “Our integration with UZURV provides transit agencies a gateway to a deep network of fleets to efficiently improve paratransit rider experience.”
