For your safety, iRIDE follows Public Health recommendations. Staff and clients must wear masks when using the service. We also employ other safety measures, including barriers and sanitization between rides. We are currently booking rides with a maximum of two clients per vehicle.
About iRIDE Transportation
Illness or frailty can make everyday tasks such as medical appointments or grocery shopping a challenge. iRIDE Plus, our government-subsidized transportation service, helps older adults or people with mobility issues get around safely and affordably. Our friendly, trained drivers will drop you off and pick you up in clean, comfortable vehicles. To use the service, you must be a registered and active iRIDE client.
How We Keep You Informed
Our program features a notification system that will inform you about upcoming rides. This system is available via voicemail, email or SMS text message. We also recently launched our online Passenger Portal, where clients can book or cancel rides, and view their upcoming schedule.
Service Area
Our transportation service area spans from Steeles Ave W. in the north to St Clair Ave W. in the south, and from Dufferin St. in the west to the Don Valley Parkway in the east. Service also extends to downtown Toronto hospitals.
