In Bristol, UK, Padam Mobility piloted the Slide on-demand shuttle service with RATPDev. Based on an app, the service allowed users to book a ride to get to work or home during rush hour.

Tried in 2016, the Slide service recorded more than 40,000 rides in one of the UK's most congested cities. Its trial ended in November 2018.
