Beyond the Bus

CATA is expanding its reach with an innovative new microtransit service designed to revolutionize the way people utilize public transportation. Whether you're a stone's throw from a bus stop or miles away, CATA's latest initiative promises seamless journeys from your doorstep to your destination.

Contracting with Via, a leading microtransit provider, CATA will launch a new pilot program later this year. Imagine the flexibility of Uber or Lyft combined with the reliability of public transit. Via’s zone-based system will offer rides within service areas, all accessible through app. Future plans include seamless integration into CATA’s Transit app for ultimate convenience and accessibility.
