Auburn University saves $200,000 annually with Lyft Business

Auburn University, a large Southern university, faced challenges with its student transportation program, which suffered from route inefficiencies and long wait times on its evening and late-night buses. To improve student safety and satisfaction while reducing costs, Auburn partnered with vendor Lyft Business to design a new ride program utilizing Lyft's services.

The solution involved creating a program offering students discounted rides within designated service areas. By implementing this with Lyft, Auburn University achieved over $200,000 in annual savings, significantly improved student satisfaction, and decreased the workload for its transit team. Lyft's flexibility also allowed for expanded service hours and bespoke programs, such as rides to voting locations.
