According to a recent LinkedIn post from Circuit, the company is drawing attention to potential funding losses that could end its Rockaway Rides and BrentwoodGO microtransit services on March 30. The post emphasizes that these on-demand services function as critical community transportation links for groceries, healthcare, employment, education, and broader transit connections.

The post highlights comments from a local community leader describing Rockaway Rides as essential for families, youth, seniors, and people with disabilities who face cost or access barriers to traditional transit. It also notes that the services create local jobs and rely on a fully electric fleet, positioning Circuit at the intersection of mobility, social impact, and sustainability.
Circuit’s message appears to encourage riders and community members to lobby elected officials and the governor to preserve funding for the programs. For investors, the post suggests that continued operation of these routes may depend on public or governmental financial support, underlining the company’s exposure to policy decisions and local transit budgets.
The post further points to growing media coverage from regional outlets including Fox 5, News 12, Newsday, and local newspapers. This visibility could increase public pressure for funding while also raising Circuit’s profile as a provider of community-focused microtransit, potentially supporting future partnerships with municipalities and transit agencies.
