All you have to do is open your app and ride, and your discount will automatically apply!
We met with local mayors – and Marshal the courthouse dog – to give them a ride around town.
 | Cheryl Selby, Mayor of OlympiaI am always excited to hear that my kids are riding home in an Uber because I know they’re safe. Now I’m glad they can do it closer to home. |
 | Ron Harding, Mayor of YelmUber will help our community remove barriers to critical services for some residents who do not have access to transportation options. |
 | Andy Ryder, Mayor of LaceyModern cities have transportation options like Uber. That’s why I’m proud Uber has chosen our growing community of Lacey as their next expansion city. |
 | Pete Kmet, Mayor of TumwaterUber will benefit Tumwater residents by providing another transportation choice for residents and employees to move about our community. |
 | Marshal, the courthouse dogIt won’t be ruff to get around anymore! My tail is wagging at the thought of a new transportation option in my neighborhood. |
Special thanks to our launch partners: Visit Olympia, Thurston County Target Zero, Capital Lakefair and the mayors of Olympia, Tumwater, Lacey and Yelm.
