Taxi Service is Operating on a Modified Schedule

Whitewater’s Ride Share (taxi) program is operating until further notice on the following temporary COVID-19 hours:

  • Monday-Thursday (Non-Session) – 7:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m.
  • Friday-Saturday (special) – 7:00 a.m. – 11:00 p.m.
  • Sunday-7:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.

These hours represent the schedule that is normally followed when UW-W is not in session, except that the Friday/Saturday hours are currently shorter than usual. These changes are likely to remain in effect until (a) bars reopen, and (b) University of Wisconsin Whitewater reopens.

There will not be restrictions on trip by trip purpose, but are observing few requests that are not one of these three purposes: (a) medical appointment; (b) grocery/supply run; (c) job commutes.

Instead of trying to multi-load customers, they are being spaced out to provide drivers with adequate time to sanitize the vehicle between each party. Disinfectants and sanitizing wipes are constantly being purchased and used as often as possible to keep up with the need to keep the community safe.
