Public Transit

METRO Connect is a 6-month ride-hailing service pilot project (initially operating Monday, Aug. 5, 2019 through Tuesday, Feb. 4, 2020) for the John Barrow Road/West Central Little Rock area that uses smaller vehicles and door-to-door on-demand service to take riders exactly where they need to go, when they need to go there. METRO Connect offers a smartphone app, the Transloc Microtransit App, (and dial-in service) to schedule ride-hailing trips occurring within a set service area, during regular Rock Region METRO operating hours (6 a.m.-8:30 p.m. Monday-Friday and 6 a.m.-5:30 p.m. Saturday). Standard METRO fares apply.

For more information about this program, please visit the Rock Region Metro website.
