Bolt, the mobility company, has launched a feature that will allow its riders to request inter-city rides in Nigeria.
The launch of the service is expected to offer comfort designed to increase the quality of service for inter-city riders and ease mobility for Nigerians, the inter-city service aims to connect Nigerians across states.
This development comes on the backdrop of Bolt’s desire to connect cities and transport people conveniently, an extension of its intracity offering.
The inter-city category on Bolt offers fast and convenient rides and is currently available for the Lagos-Ibadan and Owerri-Port Harcourt routes.
The service is accessible through the mobile platform, allowing users to book trips to and from these cities conveniently. Bolt is offering a 20% discount on all intercity trips to promote its affordability, and it is valid for up to a maximum of NGN 5,000 per ride.
To use the service, riders can request an inter-city trip by simply setting their destination on the platform, confirming their pick-up location, and then clicking on request, which will connect them to a nearby driver, just like the intra-city service.
The difference is that the inter-city service is only available from 6 a.m. until 3 p.m. daily. The inter-city service also provides replacement vehicles on standby to ensure no hindrance affects the journey.
With the festive period approaching, Nigerians can utilise the inter-city service to visit family and friends within these cities where the service is available. This provides riders with safe, fast and comfortable rides at the touch of a button.
Bolt’s inter-city category advances its commitment to excellent service delivery by simplifying city-to-city transportation.
