Do You Need A Ride? Hollywood Testing Sun Shuttle West On-Demand “Fixed Stop” Shuttle Service

March 23, 2023

The City Of Hollywood’s Sun Shuttle Micro-Transit Service has expanded west. The Sun Shuttle West is a two-month pilot Community Shuttle Service operated by Circuit. During the trial period, from March 27th, 2023 until May 31st, 2023 the “Sun Shuttle West” will operate 6-days a week, Monday through Saturday, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

Upon request, a 12-person passenger van will pick up and drop off passengers at any of the 18 predetermined high-volume locations in Hollywood, west of I-95 between Johnson and Washington Streets to the Florida Turnpike. The Sun Shuttle West is an on-demand service, meaning shuttles will only visit Designated Pick-Up/Drop-Off Locations when a ride has been requested for that location. Riders are discouraged from waiting at a location without first making a request via the Mobile Application.

Riders can download the “Ride Circuit” Application to request a ride. Fares will be set at $2.00 per person per ride, however if space is available, a person can ride to wherever the shuttle is already going free of charge.

Here Is How It Works
• Download the Ride Circuit Mobile Application from Google Play or the App Store.
• Request a “Sun Shuttle West” ride via the Application. Non-smartphone users may request a ride, by calling: (954) 303-9057.
• Go to your Designated Pick-Up/Drop-Off Location and wait for the shuttle to arrive.
