Carpooling is comingto UNL.
.Carppoling is transportation without the loneliness,
a method of saving on parking and gasoline costs and a
way to meet and get Acquainted with new faces.
Hopefully, to be in effect by' mid or late October, the
carpooling program will serve both students and faculty,
said John Duve, UNL traffic manager. The program will
serve both campuses.
An alternative to the high cost of traveling alone, car
pooling will offer people living in residential areas a way
to share rides downtown, Duve said. .
A few years ago people were saying it was nonsense
that gasoline would go up to 60 cents a gallon, he said.
Talk now is that gasoline will go as high as $1 a gallon.
Carpooling is an opportunity for people to lessen the
effect this increase would have, he said.
. Duve said those interested in carpooling should turn in
their names and transportation route to his' office. The
names and routes will be sent to the city carpooling
office to be run through a computer.
The computer will match people with others from the
same area interested in sharing rides. .
Those not in the same neighborhood, but on the same
route can be included in the carpool, he said.
People will be given the names of people that it would
be practical they ride with and it is then up to the people
to make the contacts, if they actually want to go through
with it, Duve said.
Lincoln carpool vanpool program coordinator Shirley
Maly, said carpooling isn't easy for everybody.
She said some people are too shy or afraid to contact
those in their carpool. It takes time to get used to the idea
of sharing your car.
Duve said an advantage of the Lincoln program is that
names can be added and subtracted from the carpool
lists. If individual schedules change or the need for more
people in a carpool arises, Duve said the computer can
update the lists.
"Basically the program is a war against the lone
driver," Maly said,
: The carpoolvanpool program is funded by federal and
city funds. The funding lasts until December 1978. Duve,
said he thinks if the program functions well funding will
be continued.
The more people involved in the program, the more a
success it will be, Duve said.
Maly said 671 people are currently involved in the
carpooling program.
