How it works
Group in the same vehicle trips with origin and destination near, sharing places and costs.
It changes the physical, economic and organizational conditions so that walking, pedaling, sharing and using collective transport is viable and attractive.
When does it make sense?
- When deciding location, accesses and parking
- Knowing origins, schedules, capabilities and travel needs
- Where the measure does not displace more inclusive or less impact options
How to apply it
- 1
Defining what need resolves "shared car between people" and establishing a starting situation.
- 2
Compare alternatives and adapt design to climate, use, regulation, affected people and available resources.
- 3
Apply with clear responsibilities, check the actual result and correct unwanted effects.

Less emissions and traffic
More physical activity
More efficient use of space
Limitations and precautions
