Vanpool Commuting Workshop
Long distance commuters traveling to or from the Eugene Springfield area are invited to a vanpool formation workshop on February 9 or February 11.
Vanpools are ideal for groups of 5 – 15 people who commute at least 30 miles or more, round trip. Riders pay $90 - 150 a month, depending on the size and distance of the vanpool. The fee covers the lease of a van, insurance, maintenance and gas. There are currently more than 50 vanpools with 500 commuters in Linn, Benton, Lincoln, Marion, Polk, Yamhill and Lane counties choosing vanpools for their commute.
The information sessions will cover topics such as available subsidies, the benefits of commuting by vanpool, how to start a vanpool and how to recruit other commuters. There will be food and prizes at each event.
Vanpools in the Willamette Valley are coordinated through Valley VanPool, a partnership between Cascades West Council of Governments, Cherriots Rideshare of Salem Keizer Transit and Lane Transit District’s Point2point program.
