The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) has launched a request for proposal (RFP) for an interested party to run an on-demand microtransit system in Los Angeles County. 

The private sector will partner with Metro to plan, design, implement and evaluate a brand new service.

The MicroTransit project involves the innovative transport technology in Los Angeles, California, USA. The project follows turn-by-turn instructions from a navigation system that uses live traffic conditions and real-time requests for picks-up and drops-offs to generate the most efficient possible shared trips for Metro customers.

The service will be used for short trips under approximately 20 minutes in duration in defined service zones and utilizes vehicles that are smaller than traditional transit vehicles.
