(KAIR)--The online transportation app, Uber, is now available in Atchison.
“We find out that we're in the Lawrence area for Uber,” said Atchison City Manager Trey Cocking. “So if somebody is interested in being an Uber driver, they should sign up. Or, take an Uber here in town and talk to the driver that's doing it.”
Cocking said Atchison needs more Uber drivers to sign-up and then residents to use the app. As that happens, rides will be available more often.
To use Uber or sign-up to drive, just download the app on your Smartphone or see their webiste.
Atchison had previously been without a transportation service since 2015.
