Car Sharing

SHARE YOUR JOURNEY & SAVE! CAR SHARING IS A GREAT WAY TO CUT DOWN YOUR COMMUTING COSTS AND HELP THE ENVIRONMENT.

Car sharing is a great way to cut down the cost of your commute, help the environment and get to know your colleagues.

You don’t need to own a car to car share - you can be either a passenger or a driver - you just need to find someone who is travelling at the same time, and in the same direction, to start sharing.

Find a car share buddy


The East Midlands Gateway liftshare network can help you find a car share partner by searching for people making similar journeys within your workplace, or across all employers at East Midlands Gateway.

Joining is completely FREE and it’s as simple as 1, 2, 3…

Join the car sharing network today by visiting emg.liftshare.com

Once you have found a car sharing partner, download the Liftshare Companion App. On arrival to pick up passenger(s), the driver selects Trip Authentication and generates a QR validation code. The passenger scans the QR code, using the app on their phone, before continuing the journey together.

Priority parking

Many employers at East Midlands Gateway offer priority parking for employees who car share to work. These designated car share bays are in the most sought-after locations, close to the main entrances, as an incentive to car share.

Keep a lookout for these parking spaces at your workplace by looking for the car share signs in the car park, or speak to your workplace travel plan coordinator.
