Innovative First/Last Mile Pilot to Launch for Suisun Amtrak Station/Solano Business Park
A new first and last mile pilot program will begin as early as May as a follow-up to February’s STA Board authorization to explore options pertaining to providing service for a half dozen employers located in or near the Solano Business Park, whose employees use the Capitol Corridor via the Suisun/Fairfield Amtrak Station. STA is partnering with Lyft to provide the pilot service in partnership with up to six interested employers.
Lyft will provide this First/Last Mile 6-month pilot service between the Suisun/Fairfield Amtrak Station and STA’s Solano Mobility program is working with Anheuser-Busch (Budweiser), Fairfield-Suisun Sewer District, Jelly Belly Factory, NorthBay Center for Primary Care, Partnership Health Plan, and Solano County Health and Social Services. STA’s Solano Mobility staff will implement and then assess the effectiveness of this First/Last Mile service to determine if it has a broader application at this location or to other locations with First/Last Mile service gaps in Solano County.
