Laguna Beach plans to launch a new on-demand neighborhood transportation program for the Arch Beach Heights, Bluebird Canyon and Top of the World communities in the fall. The on-demand rideshare service will be accessible via a mobile app or by calling the city’s transit dispatch line: (949) 497-0766. The council also requested that bike racks be added to vehicles that service the on-demand neighborhood pilot program. The on-demand neighborhood transit program came up for discussion in March, and there was $753,000 set aside for neighborhood transit services, including this project, in the 2021-22 fiscal year budget. Mayor Pro Tem Sue Kempf asked about the possibility of having electric vehicles service the neighbor routes.
