Opening an Uber app will soon present three new transit services that go beyond just hiring a private driver to take you to the airport. With a few new partnerships, the car sharing company plans to roll out various transportation services and provide new options for riders to get from point A to point B.

An environmentally friendly option will allow app users to reserve bikes, a service that debuted in February in San Francisco. Uber users can rent electric bikes that don’t require docks and can be paid for through the app. Known as JUMP bikes, the program also began in Washington, D.C., and offers city residents a quicker way to get around town, especially during rush hours.

“Uber Rent” comes from a collaboration with Getaround, a car-sharing company, and will let users book rental cars via the app. Users can reserve cars for rates that include insurance and gas, and the first rental of up to 10 hours will cost the driver nothing.

Uber also partnered with Masabi, an app that lets city dwellers pay for and use public transportation tickets via their mobile phones. Masabi is already in place in cities like New York, Boston and London, where users can purchase tickets for the subway and metro systems in advance.
