The two-year pilot with Via reduced vehicle emissions and congestion while improving urban mobility. On-Demand app users request rides aboard vans anywhere in the city for flat-rate fares. Commuters can also request free bus transfers from their drivers when ending rides at Yolobus stops. City officials reported more than 160,000 On-Demand trips during the pilot.
