Shared Transport: sharing your journey, or your car, or your EV charging point with others

We are working with Derbyshire County Council, Buxton Town Team and Midlands Connect and Cenex to trial a digital platform about shared transport.

What do we mean by shared transport?

You might already be familiar with shared transport (or shared mobility as it's sometimes called) - one form of it is renting a car, van or cycle for a fixed period of time. Shared transport can also include on-street cycle or scooter hire schemes. which are increasingly found in cities. These schemes are all based on hiring or renting from an organisation.

We are focussing on sharing travel resources between people, especially within local communities. It's also called peer-to-peer lending.

Examples include

sharing a journey / lift sharing
car sharing
car clubs
sharing EV charge points

We would like to know more about your views and experience of shared transport. This will help us develop the shared transport online platform with the best services, so that it is really useful for people in the area.

The survey should take between 5 and 15 minutes to complete.
