Dynamically determining provider-transportation routes and rental-vehicle routes for a multi-modal graphical user interface

The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods for determining different routes along which provider vehicles and rental vehicles can transport a requestor to a destination. For instance, in some cases, a multi-modal-transportation system receives a transportation request that includes a pickup location and a destination location. The multi-modal-transportation system analyzes the transportation request to generate (i) a provider transportation route by which a provider vehicle transports the requestor to the destination location and (ii) a rental route by which one or more intermediate vehicles and a rental vehicle transport the requestor along rental-route segments to the destination location. The multi-modal-transportation system further transmits data for both routes to a requestor device to display within a multi-modal graphical user interface.
