Vanpooling

What is a Vanpool?

A vanpool functions like a super carpool. Groups of 4 or more commuters meet at a central location, and use a 7 Passenger SUV or Mini-van to get back and forth to work. Commuters share in the driving responsibilities.

• Flexible Participation: Do you work a hybrid schedule? Vanpool is still an option! Employees can now subscribe to a seat 2–5 days per week, with pricing customized to their personal schedule.
• Convenient: Vanpools meet at Park and Ride Locations Listed below (insert link to park and ride document)
• Affordable: Vanpooling means no wear and tear on your car, saving on gas, maintenance as well as qualifying for possible discounts on auto insurance.
• Emory Commute participants receive up to a $100 vanpool subsidy per month, as well as up to 12 parking credits as a backup-option.

 

Eligibility

You are eligible to join the vanpool program if you meet the following criteria:

• Full time status (32 hour appointment or greater);

• Able to commit to riding on a full time basis, at least 2 days a week.

If you are not a full time Emory employee you may still be eligible for the vanpool program. The cost to join a vanpool if you are not a full time employee will vary based on location.
