Car sharing scheme

Car sharing is when two or more people, travelling to the same destination or to places along their route, get together to share the car journey.

Now people who live and work in Calderdale can car share using the new Calderdale Car Share scheme. The service is free to use and is brought to you through a partnership between Calderdale Council and HBOS plc.

You can register your journey details by visiting Calderdale Car Share|External link . The system will then tell you if anyone else is going in the same direction and enables you to make contact through a secure email connection. Individuals can then arrange to share both the journey and the costs of travel. Any number of journeys can be registered. And different types of journey can also be registered (for commuting to work, for leisure trips, for shopping trips, going to the match at the weekend etc.)

Car sharing saves you money

You choose

The car share scheme is as flexible as you want it to be. You choose who you share with and when. There is no obligation to share with the same person on every journey. You can share with as many different people as you like. You can choose to be contacted by telephone or e-mail. And you can make notes on your journey record as to any preferences you may have, e.g. non-smoking passengers, females only, etc.
