Dayton, OH – The Miami Valley Regional Planning Commission (MVRPC) will be marking National Rideshare Week, October 1 - 5, 2018, with daily posts on social media highlighting the benefits of sharing your commute with others to save money while reducing air pollution and road congestion. “During National Rideshare Week, we encourage residents of the Miami Valley to explore other ways to get to work or college,” stated MVRPC’s Executive Director, Brian O. Martin, AICP. “This is a great week to try carpooling, biking, or vanpooling to your destination.” Commuters are encouraged to share their new commute experiences on MVRPC’s Facebook and Twitter pages with the #RideshareWeek.

MVRPC sponsors the local RIDESHARE Program which is available for FREE to anyone who lives, works, or attends college in Clinton, Darke, Greene, Miami, Montgomery or Preble Counties.

After collecting the match list, registered users may contact other ride matched commuters to set up a carpool, vanpool, or bikepool. The RIDESHARE Program is a partner of Gohio Commute, a statewide initiative, promoting commuting alternatives to driving alone.
