Soon we’ll be adding 4 more shuttles and creating additional routes to make TIM an even more convenient service.

FAQ’s
How many passengers can the TIM autonomous shuttle carry?
Each shuttle can accommodate up to five passengers and features comfortable seating, individual doors for each passenger, and operable windows for added convenience. Passengers will be required to wear a seatbelt at all times when riding the shuttle.
What precautions are being taken for COVID-19?
Passengers and attendants are always required to wear a mask. Beep has implemented several processes and procedures in light of COVID-19. Shuttle attendants undergo a temperature check prior to the start of every shift and are required to wear masks when onboard. Disinfecting wipes and hand sanitizer stations are available on shuttles for attendants and passengers to use. We ask passengers utilize the hand sanitizer prior to boarding the shuttle and buckling their seatbelt. We have also enhanced our cleaning procedures while the shuttle is in service and at the end of the day. We have also reduced the seating capacity on our shuttles.
What is the operating speed?
The shuttle can travel up to 25mph along the corridor and have varying speeds based on where the shuttle is operating along the transitway.
How does TIM work?
One of the most exciting changes is that the TIM vehicles will now be driver-driven. While we were initially testing fully autonomous technology, we’ve listened to the community’s needs, and we believe that having an experienced driver at the wheel will offer a more personalized and responsive service.

The vehicle is 100% electric and takes less than $30 a month to charge.

Do I need to bring my own car seat or booster for my children?
The shuttle does not have car seats or accessible tether anchors so bringing a car seat or booster is not an option for transporting small children. Children must be seated and wear seatbelts at all times.
