Ridesharing service Lyft comes to Olympia (Lacey and Tumwater, too)
The ridesharing service known as Lyft is now available in Olympia, the company announced.
Although Lyft, a competitor to Uber, specifically announced it was coming to Olympia, a check of its website shows the service is available in Lacey and Tumwater, too.
Lyft drivers have earned $1.5 billion, including more than $200 million in tips, and Lyft passengers have added more than $750 million in spending to local economies, according to a news release.
The company was formed in 2012. Uber has been operating in Thurston County since 2016.
