LIFT Online Booking
The online trip booking tool allows LIFT customers to book, cancel and manage their trips online. After creating an account you will be able to easily reserve and cancel trips, view all of your upcoming trips on a calendar, and make changes to any rides all from your computer, smartphone or tablet.
This feature will be available to customers receiving door-to-door service and who are paying their own fare for the trips. County-funded trips and customers receiving hand-to-hand service have special handling requirements and trips must continue to be booked through a reservationist or through the fax/email process.
