FAST
It just takes a minute to book your ride! The app will send you an approximate arrival time for your Pierce Transit Runner vehicle.

AFFORDABLE
Pierce Transit Runner costs the same as a bus trip, and daily and 30-day passes are accepted. Pay your fare using ORCA, Transit app on your smartphone, or a paper pass. To pay using cash, visit one of the many ORCA retail locations or vending machines to convert your cash to E-Purse value. For more information on buying or using an ORCA card, visit myorca.com.


SUSTAINABLE.
Sharing rides reduces the number of vehicles on the roads, bringing down congestion and CO2 emissions. You can even double up your green cred by connecting with other public transit services. With a couple of taps, you get to do your part to make your city a little bit greener and cleaner, every time you ride.

Unreliable. Almost never anyone available. On the rare occasion there is a driver out its a 30+ min wait. Being dependent on this service must be horrible

I had to cancel my ride today due to the GPS service used by Pierce Transit Runner giving shoddy directions to the unfortunate driver that put them in an endless perpetual loop. Edit: Here's a suggestion to Pierce Transit for addressing this issue; educate drivers on multiple GPS navigation systems so that when one doesn't work efficiently, they can use another like Google Maps for example.

Service area errors all the time or they just gut the service without telling you, who can say. There's no communication between what the "PT Runner" service does or offers anymore. It's amazing really. You can sometimes "trick" the app to pick you up but honestly I don't think it works anymore.
