PROJECTSPICKUP
Project Connect is making it easier for customers to affordably access schools, grocery stores, doctor's offices, and other locations in their neighborhoods. With Pickup by CapMetro, riders can arrange on-demand transit service from their homes to anywhere within the Pickup service zone. As part of Project Connect, three new Pickup zones have been launched since 2021:
- Dessau
- South Menchaca
- North Oak Hill
Riders may book a trip anywhere within a single service zone for the same cost as a trip on CapMetro bus and Rapid, $1.25. As with all CapMetro services, kids ride free.
