London-Based Rideshare Website Expands To Huron And Perth

The City of London is revamping its regional rideshare program to include Huron County and Perth County.

Through their website, you can find someone who lives and works close to you who is interested in carpooling. It is now being offered in Huron County, St. Marys, Stratford and Perth County.

The goal is to reduce traffic and pollution all while saving those in the region a little bit of money.

“It asks what times you work, it asks you if you’re a smoker of if you prefer to stop at your local coffee shop along the way and that’s how the service tries to find a match behind the scenes,” says the City of London’s TDM Coordinator. “It’s one (website) that’s being promoted by the city, a trusted source.”

Those who offer rides or are looking for a driver must agree to terms and conditions before using the website. Pairs also must meet first in a public place before agreeing to ride together.
