Does the institution participate in a carpool/vanpool matching program?:
A brief description of the program:
UCI promotes carpooling and vanpooling through its marketing campaigns, the Zimride rideshare matching site (http://www.zimride.com/uci), and by offering the incentive of complimentary occasional parking permits (valued at $336 for carpool, $672 for vanpool). Employees who team together in a four-person carpool can park for free. Nearly 10% of the UCI employee population commutes by carpool.
UCI Zimride use rose 51% to 5,961 users in 2012 resulting in 280 commute-match requests and 798 one-time ride requests.
In partnership with vRide and OCTA, UCI currently facilitates 22 vanpools that are utilized by 139 commuters from throughout the Southern California area, encompassing the counties of Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Diego and San Bernardino. (http://www.parking.uci.edu/AT/modes/vanpool.cfm)
