Abstract:

This study was undertaken to examine the potential for development of a Statewide Rideshare Support Program. This report documents the results of a literature review, telephone surveys with ridesharing agencies in Texas and four other states, and telephone surveys with departments of transportation in fifteen other states. Further, it outlines an initial approach for a Statewide Rideshare Support Program and potential activities to be undertaken to develop this program. Information was obtained from rideshare programs on staffing and budgeting levels, services offered, ride matching databases, marketing efforts, and local levels of interest in ridesharing. State departments of transportation were surveyed for information on types of support offered to ridesharing programs, staffing and budgeting, measures of effectiveness, and perceptions of ridesharing at the state level. The report includes suggestions for actions by the Texas Department of Transportation to facilitate support for ridesharing programs in the state.
