A partnership between Maruti, Uber and the city of Pflugerville will cover a portion of the cost of Uber rides within the city starting in October.
Pflugerville City Council established the details of the program, named Pfetch a Ride, at a Sept. 13 meeting after initially approving a contract in August.
Under the program, Uber riders will pay only the first $4 of a ride within the city, after which the city will cover the next $10. Riders will be responsible for any costs beyond $14.
For a ride to be eligible, it must begin and end within Pflugerville city limits or at the Capital Metro Park & Ride station at Tech Ridge.
