Car Club for Penrith - Feasibility Study report

Weight: 
0

In 2011, PACT received a Cumbria County Council Neighbourhood Forum grant to undertake a study into the feasibility of establishing a car sharing club in Penrith. 

Athough there is some interest in such a car club, the report finds that it is not viable to set one up at the moment.  It recommends looking at various low-risk alternatives.

With soaring car fuel prices, increasing road tax, constant fluctuations in insurance premiums and current uncertainty in the running and maintenance of public transport, you may be wondering whether there's a better way for us to make the best and most efficient use of our vehicles and transportation.

Wednesday 7th December 2011: Transport theme discussion in Penrith

Transport is one of the biggest areas of CO2 emissions. Furthermore our community transport infrastructure is so piecemeal that it is almost impossible to get about in a rural area without a car.

The PACT transport group is actively looking at creative ways of sharing car use and is working to promote a more integrated public-private transport system in the Penrith area.
