Thanks for Making the change. Your efforts made a Huge Difference.

Take a look at these numbers.
  • TripLink increased from 750 to 1,246 new  people registered
  • One way trips reduced in one month 7,677
  • Collectively we saved 71,910  miles of vehicle  travel

Translating into a savings of $8,623 for one month!


Find out how one vanpooler and one cyclist are making a difference with their commute.

Farmers' Market Was a BIG hit! Take a look at our Rideshare Week photo booth below.

SLOCOG board members John Shoals Mayor of Grover Beach, Janice Peters Mayor of Morro Bay, Jim Patterson District 5 Supervisor and SLOCOG Board President & Tony Ferrara Mayor of Arroyo Grande get on the bus to support Rideshare Week.

 

A donation of $10 to the Food Bank translates to all
of this food, enough for 170 meals.

 We appreciate what Rideshare is doing this year because it helps us all re-direct our limited resources in ways that help others. For each dollar the Food Bank receives, up to 15 lbs. of food can be obtained through the Food Bank to help those who are hungry,” - Carl Hansen, Executive Director of the Food Bank Coalition of San Luis Obispo County.
