Event Details

Carpooling is a key strategy for reducing costs, easing congestion, and making daily travel more sustainable. But carpooling isn’t one-size-fits-all—schools, universities, and workplaces each face unique challenges in making shared rides work.

Join us for this webinar featuring practitioners who have successfully implemented carpool programs for different audiences. Learn how they match riders, manage incentives, prevent fraud, and address challenges in today’s evolving transportation landscape.
