Vanpooling is an excellent alternative to driving alone, especially if you have a longer commute. Those traveling more than 25 miles one way to work are likely to see the direct benefit of not having to put a substantial amount of miles on their cars each week.  This reduction in miles traveled also means less pain at the pump!  RideShare can help you get started by identifying potential vanpool participants who share your commuter pattern. The cost of the vanpool will be determined by the number of commuters in the van, distance traveled and total gas costs. For commuters whose employers offer pre-tax transit benefits or transit subsidies, your costs are even lower!
