Carpool

Save Money and Time

One of the easiest ways you can help to cut down on the Valley's air pollution is to find a carpool partner to share the ride with at least one day a week! Not only does carpooling help reduce air pollution, it can also:

  • Save you money by decreasing automobile.
  • Reduce insurance premiums by eliminating or limiting use of personal vehicle for daily commuting
    (Compute your savings with our Cost Savings Calculator)
  • Reduces stress
  • Helps clean the air
  • Provide useable time for riders--read, sleep, work, and talk.
  • Save you time by using the HOV lanes.
  • Once you have set up your carpool, join our Commuter Club Program and receive discounts on various Valley products and services.

To find a carpool partner, logon to ShareTheRide.com. Our FREE ridematching service provides you an easy way to find others in the Valley interested in sharing the ride to work in a carpool or vanpool.

Park & Ride Lots
If no rideshare partners turn up in your neighborhood, consider an alternative plan, like recruiting from a larger area or meeting at a park & ride lot.

ShareTheRide.com allows you the flexibility to add additional stops such as a Park and Ride lot to help you find a carpool partner.
