Multi-passenger vehicles for family outings, church groups, community events, and organized outings.
Riverdale Transit Shuttle offers group transportation for families, churches, senior centers, and community organizations who need to move multiple passengers together in one coordinated, comfortable vehicle.
Every ride is operated by a licensed, insured company with background-checked drivers, and every wheelchair-accessible vehicle is inspected regularly for safety. Whether you need a single ride or a recurring schedule, our dispatch team is available 24/7 to help you plan it, and a real person answers the phone, not an automated system.
Riverdale Transit Shuttle was built around the specific challenges of group transportation: predictable, dependable transportation for passengers and families who can't afford a ride that shows up late, cancels last minute, or isn't equipped to handle their needs. That focus shapes everything from how we train drivers to how we schedule vehicles across our service area.
If you're not sure whether group transportation is the right fit for your situation, call our dispatcher at (708) 654-3440. We'll ask a few quick questions about your trip, your mobility needs, and your schedule, then recommend the right vehicle and service for you, even if that means pointing you toward a different one of our services instead.
