Rideshare Program in St. Paul

Author
St. Paul Transportation Management Organization
(TMO)

In 2007, the St. Paul Transportation Management Organization (TMO) brought the nation’s first incentive-based ride network, a national web-based organization called NuRide, to the seven-county metro area. Estimating that a 10% increase in ridesharing decreases congestion delays by 50%, the TMO believes everyone would start getting around a bit more quickly if we all shared a ride once in a while.

Car sharing is the organized use of one or more cars with other people. It's a way to have a car when you really need one, while relying on cheaper alternatives for other trips. Car sharing is designed to save you money and lessen your impact on the city and on the natural environment.
