Ride LivINgston is a mobility management website (www.RideLivingston.com) that provides a clearinghouse of transportation options for all Livingston County residents and visitors. The trip planning website provides information to the general public regarding all transportation resources and choices that are currently available to county residents, with a specific emphasis on older adults, people with disabilities, and individuals with lower incomes in need of specialized transportation services. The site is user-friendly for individuals seeking information and planning trips on their own behalf as well as for human service agency staff planning trips on behalf of clients. By entering a point of origin, destination, time preference, trip purpose, and preferred transportation mode(s), the website will display trip alternatives and details including the name of the transportation provider and contact information for each proposed alternative. A list of transportation options from public transportation to paratransit to taxi services and more is provided. This is the first rural county website of its type in New York State. The website uses “1-click” technology that facilitates the trip planning website operation and allows both human service agencies and the general public to access information on available ride options within Livingston County and to neighboring counties.
