Easy Street® is a statewide commuter van service
sponsored by The Connecticut Department of Transportation and operated
by The Rideshare Company. Designed to help people who live or work
in Connecticut get to their jobs, Easy Street® offers over 300
routes daily transporting 3,000 riders. Easy Street® benefits
riders and non-riders.
Frequently, riders and drivers say that Easy Street® improves
the quality of their lives, getting them to work on time and saving
them money. Easy Street® benefits their communities, too,
by reducing congestion and automobile air pollutants.
The Easy Street® fleet is made up of 7-passenger minivans
as well as 12 and 15-passenger full-size vans. Fares are per seat,
payable at the beginning of each month.
Currently with over 300 routes across the state, Easy Street®
may have a route to meet your needs. If not, consider creating
a route of your own. It’s easy to do that too. Starting
an Easy Street® minivan requires a driver and five full-time
riders. A 12-passenger van requires a driver and eight full-time
riders. Drivers of full-size vans ride free and enjoy 140 free
miles monthly. While drivers of minivans pay the same fare as
the riders, they enjoy 250 free miles monthly. That adds up to
3,000 miles annually.
Vans are fully insured. Gasoline and maintenance are included,
too. Want to know more? Call us toll-free at 1-800-972-3279 today.
