Keoride On Demand

Keoride is our On Demand service in the Northern Beaches, providing customers with first and last mile connections.

Connecting you to designated transport hubs, and other popular destinations like shopping centres or hospitals within your service area, Keoride can be booked remotely and arrives when you’re ready to go.

Partnering with Via, who developed Keoride’s fully integrated transport platform, the Keoride mobile application matches passengers who are travelling in the same direction and calculates an optimised flexible route to pick up and drop off customers. You can even track the vehicle and get real-time updates on estimated arrival times.

This form of public transport is often called ‘first and last mile connection’ because it is designed to get you to and from a transport hub in the easiest possible way with minimal wait times, using dedicated vehicles aimed at moving small groups of people per journey and quickly. Another benefit is that you do not need to find parking or deal with long walks at either end of your journey.

Our Keoride Sprinter vehicles service individuals and small groups to and from their destination, while our blue Keoride mini-bus vehicles seat 18 customers for a comfortable ride.

The blue Keoride mini-bus vehicles are also fitted with kerb-kneeling technology and wheelchair ramp, providing level entry for all passengers with dedicated wheelchair and pram space inside the vehicle making the service fully accessible.

Keoride is considered an integrated transport mode as part of the public transport network servicing the Northern Beaches. Used in conjunction with the public bus services that operate in the area, Keoride acts as the first and last mile connection to your destination.

Keoride is a collaboration of leading transport organisations that have come together to deliver On Demand for the Northern Beaches. Operated by one of Australia’s leading transport operators, Keolis Downer, and working with both Via (technology provider) and Transport for NSW, Keoride is an innovative public transport solution changing the way we travel.

We are proud to have the opportunity to co-create and deliver this transport solution for communities in the Northern Beaches and on behalf of Transport for NSW.
