Car Sharing and governance

Closed

The project is focused on the promotion of car sharing, which means the sharing of a private vehicle between groups of people, in order to reduce transport costs and develop a sustainable mobility. Actually, the occupation rate of vehicle is close to 1, contributing to the saturation of the traffic and pollution. The main objective of the project is to sustain the car sharing integrating it in other forms of mobility. The specific objectives of “Co&Go” are, from one hand individualize and realise some efficient and reproducible models of promotion and experimentation of car sharing for diverse targets and diverse territorial contexts (urban/periurbain areas, mountains ….); from another hand adopted process of governance guided and controlled by territorial and competent administrations, reproducible on other territories. Main recipients of the car sharing are commuters who move often to reach their working place, students, people travelling toward health centres, people going to events or touristic places. The car sharing reduces the number of displacements effectuated by car, and therefore reduce the emissions and energetic consumption. As other sectors of the shared economy, the diffusion of this practice is lined to an innovative process of a cultural, social and technologic type. It’s a challenge for which the project will use the best practices realized at national and international level.
