Join Zimride!

A message from Jamey Wagner, Transportation Alternatives Program Coordinator:

Driving alone is expensive! Even if you're only commuting 10 miles each way, finding a carpool partner can save you over $100 a month.

With Zimride, UCSB is offering our employees a new, fun and easy way to coordinate your daily commute and save money. Zimride makes it easy to share the seats in your car or catch a ride with fellow your colleagues.

It's simple. Have a car? Split the costs by driving with friends and coworkers. Don't have a car? Find a commute partner. With Zimride you can also check out the profiles of your colleagues before you share the ride.

Add your daily commute to Zimride before September 30th and be entered to win a $50 gas card.

If you would like to broaden your search using another online carpool matching system, please use the Santa Barbara County Association of Governments' ride match system: http://www.trafficsolutionsonline.info/
