Carpooling Benefits
Carpool parking permits are less expensive per
person than single occupancy vehicle permits. The
more riders there are in one carpool unit, the
cheaper the cost per person. Additionally, Priority
Parking is available for carpoolers on 13th Ave
between University and Agate. The spots are marked
‘Lot 13’ and are held for carpoolers 7 a.m. to 6
p.m. Monday through Friday. Lot 13 is first come
first serve.
Ride Matching with AlterNetRides
The University community uses
AlterNetRides to coordinate ride matching for
faculty, staff and students.
AlterNetRides is a free, confidential, online
database that connects members with others in their
community that commute to the University of Oregon
area.
AlterNetRides database matches members based on
neighborhood location, trip frequency, and commute
times.
Guaranteed Ride Home
A GRH
program offers faculty and staff a convenient and
reliable mode of transportation—alleviating much of
the fear and anxiety of being unable to respond to
an emergency (ill/injured child, family member,
etc.) when using LTD, participating in a carpool or
riding a bicycle instead of driving to the UO. For
more information, please visit the
GBH page.
