CircuitNR, New Rochelle’s free electric shuttle, is expanding its service area, enabling more residents to take advantage of a convenient, sustainable transportation option, while also providing equitable access to vaccination sites and medical care, which is especially critical to our region’s recovery from the COVID pandemic.
The service area will now extend beyond the downtown and Lincoln Avenue corridor to encompass Stop & Shop on Palmer Avenue to the east, Union and Washington Avenues & First Street to the west (including Montefiore New Rochelle Hospital), Pelham Road & Meadow Lane to the south, and the Wykagyl area to the north. The number of vehicles in service will increase from three to six, creating additional capacity while maintaining the same level of frequency.
This press release has more information. And here’s the CircuitNR webpage, including instructions for downloading the Circuit app.
