The connection that makes transit work.
Electric shuttles connecting transit hubs to final destinations. Close the gap between where transit stops and where people actually need to go.
Why the last mile matters most
Close the Gap
Most transit failures happen in the last leg. A reliable electric shuttle connection removes the reason to drive the whole trip — and turns transit into a viable commute option for riders who would otherwise skip it.
Increase Ridership
An easy last mile connection increases ridership on the transit lines it serves. When commuters know they can get from the station to their office without a second car, they use the train.
Reduce Parking Demand
Remote parking lot connectors reduce the number of vehicles competing for close-in spaces. Employees park further out and ride in. Fewer spaces needed at the destination, lower construction and operating costs.
Flexible Scheduling
Peak commute hours run as fixed routes for maximum throughput. Off-peak service switches to on-demand so vehicles are not running empty loops between requests. The same platform handles both modes.
Where first and last mile works
Any gap between where transit stops and where people need to go is a first/last mile problem. These are the most common connections Slidr solves.
Train station to downtown
Connect commuter rail passengers to offices, hotels, and destinations in the city core. Reduce downtown traffic while extending the reach of existing rail.
Park-and-ride to office
Shuttle employees from remote parking lots to campus buildings or office parks. Reduce on-site parking demand without reducing headcount.
Airport to hotel
Connect airport terminals to nearby hotels and resorts. An on-demand connection that guests request from the app the moment they land.
Bus hub to neighborhoods
Extend the reach of bus rapid transit and regional bus networks into lower-density residential areas that fixed routes cannot serve efficiently.
Stadium to gate
Move fans from remote parking, transit stops, and drop-off zones to stadium gates on game day. High-volume, time-sensitive — fixed route at peak, on-demand for stragglers.
We handle everything
Turnkey from day one
Slidr designs the connection route, procures vehicles, staffs drivers, and manages daily operations. One contract covers vehicles, staff, technology, insurance, and reporting. No internal transit staff required.
Custom technology. Your brand.
Know when the shuttle arrives.
Commuters track the shuttle in real time and see estimated arrival at their stop or pickup point. For on-demand connections, riders request a ride from the transit hub and track the vehicle as it approaches.
Reporting and oversight tools
Reporting Tools
Ridership by connection point, time of day, and direction. Measure the impact of your shuttle connection on transit ridership and parking demand. Exportable for agency reports and grant documentation.
Management Tools
Color-coded shift overview tracks on-time performance across all connection runs. Adjust dispatch in real time when transit schedules shift. Playback any trip for accountability and service review.
Up and running in days, not months
Slidr handles route design, vehicle procurement, app configuration, and driver training. Most first/last mile connections launch within days of contract signing.
