We want to help you find the ride that’s right for you! The DRMAC Transportation Information and Assistance Center is your “go-to” resource when you need to identify transportation options to “go-to” medical appointments, shopping, across town or just about anywhere life takes you.

Getting There Travel Training
DRMAC’s Getting There Travel Training Program’s mission is to increase air quality, decreases traffic congestion and to get people out of their cars. We want to provide transportation options to get people to and from where they need to go using RTD, Bird, Uber, DRMAC and many more different services and apps. This gives participants the tools and total access to multimodal transportation options in our 9-county region.
The Getting There Travel Training Program consists of 3 sessions to the series. Each class is about 1 hour long virtually and about 1.5 in-person. In these classes, we teach people how to find transit resources, plan a trip, read a map, find, and board a bus or train, apply for discounts, purchase tickets and fairs, use mobile ticketing apps, Uber, Lime and Bird’s scooters, e-bikes, and much more. At the end of in-person group training sessions, DRMAC takes those who completed all 3 sessions, on a FREE “In the Field Trip” using RTD, Bird, and Lime’s services and devices. We have options to sign up as an individual or as a group for an organization. To learn more, please email info@drmac-co.org
Getting There Travel Training Guide and App
DRMAC’s Getting There Guide serves as a transportation resource for 9 counties of the Denver Metro area. It contains information about paratransit, public/private transportation, rideshare options, and volunteer transportation. The guide is free for everyone to access and download on www.drmac-co.org and lists a variety of low-cost and free options. Additionally, all of this information can be found in our Getting There App and webtool, www.GettingThereGuide.com. The availability of the app and webtool allow users to search for transportation options that are tailored to their specific location, accommodations, age, and more. Getting There is a free app and will soon contain more resources beyond transportation, like housing and food assistance. To learn more, please email info@drmac-co.org
