Uride To Launch Ridesharing Program In Peterborough On November 27th

Uride, Canada’s Fastest Growing Ridesharing Company, is set to launch in Peterborough on Friday, November 27th, just in time for the holiday season. Uride began operations in Thunder Bay in March 2017, and now operates in eight cities across Ontario, Manitoba and Saskatchewan—with a focus being to help fill the transportation void that exists amongst smaller communities across Canada, and to stop people from impaired driving.

In honour of the launch in Peterborough, Uride will be offering users in Peterborough up to 50% off all rides by inputting promo code URIDEPTBO when making a booking. This promotion will expire after Sunday, December 13th. Anyone interested in booking a Uride can download the Uride app from the App Store or Google Play Store, or visit the Uride website here. 

“Peterborough deserves ridesharing, especially during the holiday’s when demand for private transportation is at its highest and wait times can be exceedingly long,” says Skye Volpi, Uride’s COO.

“Having access to safe and reliable private transportation is important for a lot of people, especially under the current circumstances with Covid-19 where people are concerned about using public transit services,” he adds. “We believe Uride can provide just that for Peterborough.”

Over the coming months, Uride will continue to work with city officials to consult on the implementation of ridesharing bylaw that promotes safety and competition amongst private transportation companies in Peterborough.
