Ride-Hailing Pilot Expansion

The ride-hailing pilot has expanded to include two new convenient pick-up and drop-off locations at Escondido Village and the Visitor Center. The goal is to increase campus safety and convenience for folks who use Ride-Hailing Apps like Uber and Lyft. There are now four designated locations, including the initial locations in front of Tresidder and in the Oval/Main Quad. All four locations will appear as options when scheduling a ride in the apps.
