Long Island & Queens - Promoting Sustainable Transportation
Circuit Transit Launches Electric Micro-Shuttle Services in Long Island and Queens
Circuit Transit Inc. is supporting sustainable transportation in the Rockaways neighborhood of Queens, and in Brentwood, in Long Island. Existing public transit does not meet 100% of the transportation needs of these two communities, and the lack of sustainable alternatives to personal vehicles represents a barrier to employment, education, and healthcare for residents.
Circuit is bringing an affordable, electric micro-shuttle service to these communities to serve on-demand trips and bridge the first/last mile gap between transit stops and passenger destinations. The micro-transit fleet consists of 100% battery-electric vehicles and utilizes mobile ride-request app technology supporting smart stops and rider-pooling functionality. The sustainable transit service is employing residents as shuttle drivers and providing publicly available EV charging hubs to increase local charging access.
