Impact analysis
No cost to the city was discussed; this was an informational report.
Transit riders along La Cienega and the other Westside corridors if the improvements move forward.
Taxpayers could be exposed if Metro claws back old Prop A funds, and seniors could face disruption if the service transition isn't handled carefully.

City Council Study Session - Aug 4, 2026
The city is deciding whether to launch an on-demand shared-ride service covering all of Beverly Hills, replacing Dial-A-Ride and connecting riders to Metro stations. The full two-year plan costs up to $3.1 million, funded by transit-only Prop A sales tax money. Council members want a smaller, more affordable version tied to subway station openings.

City Council Study Session - May 5, 2026
The city could launch a two-year, on-demand shuttle service using up to four electric vehicles, connecting residents to the new Metro D Line subway stations and points citywide. It would be paid for entirely with transit-restricted Prop A funds and could save $560,000 a year by absorbing the senior Dial-A-Ride program. Council wants more financial clarity before committing.
