Bucks Car Share
If you are a commuter working in Buckinghamshire and you 'wish you were here', you could
start to make it a reality just by changing the way you travel to work. It only takes a few minutes
to register and it doesn't cost anything to join - but what you save could be enough to put you on
that tropical beach!
Most independent sources put the true cost of running a car at 40 pence per mile or upwards,
depending on the vehicle. When they sit idling in congested traffic they are particularly
inefficient. Yet every day, key commuter routes are bumper-to-bumper, no-one is getting
anywhere quickly, and we are all paying for it. To the 40 pence per mile, add the pollution that
damages our environment, the tension and frustration that damages our state of health, and the
lost time for work - or indeed leisure - that makes our life more stressful.
That holiday seems even more attractive now doesn't it?
Everyone agrees - we've got to make a change. So Bucks County Council and Wycombe District
Council have created a scheme to help busy commuters save money, time and effort on the
journey to work in Buckinghamshire.
It's called Bucks CarShare.
Bucks CarShare offers commuters the chance to share their travel costs with others making
similar journeys, with a minimum of effort. Just register your details confidentially with Bucks
CarShare, and we'll search our database for other registered users, allowing you to make contact
and arrange car sharing suited to your own specific needs. By sharing the journey, you can share
the costs - and as well as a pleasant journey with your travelling companions, you have the
satisfaction of knowing you are helping the environment.
