New York bill A00807 makes microtransit services outside cities with over one million residents eligible for statewide mass transportation operating.

New York bill A00807 amends the transportation law to make any microtransit service outside of a city with a population of more than one million eligible for statewide mass transportation operating assistance, regardless of vehicle size. Microtransit service is defined as a technology-enabled on-demand service with dynamically generated routing that uses a managed fleet of multi-passenger vehicles dedicated to that service. This change aims to support innovative transportation solutions in less densely populated areas.
