Massachusetts S2253 aims to reduce congestion and encourage shared rides by imposing a rider-assessment on transportation network companies.
Massachusetts S2253 amends existing law to impose a rider-assessment on transportation network companies, charging 6.25% of the total fare for pre-arranged rides. This rider-assessment does not apply to rides requested through programs established by public entities for individuals, including those eligible for paratransit services. The bill also mandates that transportation network companies provide clear fare estimates to riders, including during surge pricing and high demand times.
