Hi Everyone, we are OFFICIALLY LAUNCHING OUR RIDESHARE SERVICE!!!! Check it out at https://universitytransport.com/. Why is our rideshare better?
Riders.
-Once you request a ride you get notified the moment someone posts a ride which fits your request
- You can reserve spots in cars
- You can keep track of all your rides and message the drivers
Drivers.
-Once you post a ride, you get notified the moment a potential passenger may want to ride in your car
- you can keep track of all the rides you are hosting and the passengers riding in them.
*Keep in mind this service is in beta. There may be flaws, if you find any or have any suggestions in general, please let us know!
Now, as most of you know we used to do bus trips for special occasions but unfortunately there were a few factors which forced us to discontinue those services:
- we did not want to make profit off students
- larger bus companies in the area handicapped our connections
Since the founding team is graduating this year, we decided to convert it into a fully autonomous rideshare site with corresponding apps for iOS and Android. We want to continue to offer affordable transportation for students, even after we graduate. Hopefully, you can get some use out of it!
Cheers,
UniversityTransport
