The First-Mile, Last-Mile program expands public transit access to an area of the City with limited availability, providing more convenience to bus riders while at the same time, saving Chandler taxpayers the high cost of extending bus routes further into south Chandler.  Discounts of up to 50% off on rides to and from designated bus stops south of Pecos Road are now available through a new partnership between the City of Chandler and the rideshare platform Lyft.
