Lyft plans to ease traffic congestion

SAN FRANCISCO (KRON)–Lyft is updating its app to add the option for users to walk a short distance to meet their ride.

Users will be able to accept or decline the option.


A similar feature is already part of the company’s carpooling service, but will now be available to single riders.

The idea is to speed up people’s rides by coordinating the pickup.
