Car share and share alike

The news through from Devon County Council is that carsharedevon.com attracted a whole load of new members last month.

According to their press release: “The free car share service commissioned by Devon County Council in partnership with Plymouth City Council and Torbay Council attracted 179 new people last month; almost twice the monthly average of 90 new registrations.”

As new member Tim said: “I registered on the system because I travel 82 miles a day from Bridgwater to Exeter. It costs around £70 a week in fuel so I’m keen to car share to save some money and also to reduce my environmental impact. I appreciate that I may have to wait several weeks to find a suitable match but I’m happy that the carsharedevon.com system will keep searching.”

Carsharedevon.com now has more than 5,000 members.
