Via today announced a partnership with troubled autonomous vehicle startup May Mobility to develop a platform that integrates on-demand shared rides, public transportation, and transit options for passengers with accessibility needs.

The longer-term strategy involves multiple public transit deployments in 2021, starting with Arlington, Texas.
