Roseville Transit Arrow is replacing Dial-A-Ride where customers had to call to schedule a ride.

ROSEVILLE, Calif. — People can now request a ride from Roseville Transit through an app.

Dial-A-Ride, where customers had to call to schedule a ride, is being replaced with Arrow, which uses the app GO South Placer.

"Arrow combines the convenience and flexibility of ride-hailing services with the capacity and affordability of transit," Helen Dyda, a spokesperson for the city of Roseville wrote in an email to ABC10.

Rides can be requested on the same day or up to 14 days in advance.
