Car sharing

Sharing your car or being a passenger helps reduce emissions and saves you money.

This is one of the simplest and least costly ways of reducing your carbon emissions. As soon as you car share, emissions are halved, a vehicle is taken off the road and it helps reduce congestion.

Sharing will save you money and reduces the stress of driving every day. Essex County Council have worked with Liftshare to create the Essex Car Share scheme. This provides a free matching service for all those who live, work and travel in and around Essex.

The site matches you up with potential partners. You can choose to share as little or as much as you like. There are no fees or minimum times you have to share.
