I wrote about my team’s proposal for the City of Tomorrow Challenge before, in this post – and I have exciting news to share! Our team was one of 13 to be chosen to move forward as a semi-finalist. This means that we’re one step closer to bringing accessible ride-sharing to Pittsburgh. We’re really excited, and really passionate about making this happen.

To make sure that our proposal is as complete as possible – and to make sure that it fits what our potential users really want – we need some help. If you live in the Pittsburgh area and have a disability, we want your input! There are a few things that you can do to help:

1. Fill out our survey
Click here to access our survey – it shouldn’t take you more than five minutes, but will give us really useful information as we work on our proposal.

2. Tell us about your commute
We want to know about your current commute now – what it’s like, what options you have – and if there’s anything that would make your commute better. Here’s how you can do that:

Click this link below to visit our proposal page. Then scroll down to the comment section, and click the blue button that reads “comment.” You’ll have to sign in. We’d love to hear things like…

-Paint a story about the value ride-share brings to your daily routine.
-Talk about the barriers you face everyday.
-Have something specific you’d like to us to consider?

3. Share, share, share!
Share this with as many people with disabilities in Pittsburgh as you know!
