Imagine a bright future for Hinesburg! A future with less cars on the road, more people sharing the ride. Happier. Cleaner. Greener.

1200 lbs of CO2 emmissions could be saved by sharing a ride to work just one day a week. See, you can make a difference and save in all ways!

People helping people share the ride! We have assembled a team of caring volunteers and professionals who are reinventing how Hinesburg rides.

We will be working diligently on this site and all of our programs, so stay tuned!

Gas prices kept creeping up, so my coworkers and I started carpooling. Now we ride together two or three days a week and the savings are really adding up!

Sharing a ride to work is easier than you think. With our ride matching system you can find dozens of other people who are headed to work in the same direction you are.
We’re providing rides for Hinesburg residents to the doctor, grocery store, post office and other approved needs. If you would like to become a volunteer driver, if you need a ride, or know of someone who does, contact us today.

1/3 of the energy
used by Vermonter’s is by driving.
Usually alone! Do you ride alone?
