Go Sudbury! Uber Rides Program
The Go Sudbury! Uber Rides Program is a Town-funded, partially subsidized, transportation program provided via Uber to get from one place to another if no 
other public transportation is available. Grant funding may also help to support the program. Rides are provided for non-urgent healthcare and vaccination appointments, work, shopping, and accessing community resources.

Where can I go and what will I pay?
The Uber Rides Program service area covers a circle 25 miles around Sudbury. All rides must begin or end in Sudbury. Service is provided to the Logan Express Shuttle in Framingham, but not to Logan Airport. There is a limit of 10 one-way rides per month. The copay for a one-way ride is based on the distance of the ride as follows:
- For a ride up to 5 miles, the copay is $3.00.
- For a ride between 5 miles and 10 miles, the copay is $5.00
- For a ride longer than 10 miles, the copay is $15.00
The Uber Rides Program does not provide wheelchair accessible vehicles (WAV). For rides in a WAV vehicle consider the Sudbury Connection Van service. For medical rides consider the Sudbury Connection Van Service or the Go Sudbury! Taxi Rides Program.
How do I sign up for the Uber Rides Program?
You must have a private account with Uber on your smartphone for this service. An Uber Clinic Technology Support volunteer will assist participants with issues related to downloading and using the Uber application on your smartphone for this program. If you are an existing Go Sudbury! Uber Rides Program user, you do not need to make any changes to your smartphone application. We are asking all riders, however, to re-register for the program.
