They provide two types of Demand Responsive service:

The Wright State University’s time point is located along the Orange Line flex route and is at the Student Union (shared bus stop with Greater Dayton RTA and the Raider Shuttle). Flex Route buses are also equipped with bike racks.
To schedule a ride or flex route deviation, call the Scheduling Office between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday–Friday, at least two business days (by noon) before your trip date.
