MassRIDES
Outreach Coordinator Samantha Devin presented at the January 9, 2017
Community Partnership meeting on NuRide,
a MassRlDES' online tool that helps commuters find carpool matches and
provides rewards for greener trips. NuRide can help commuters find
people that live and work near them and are interested in sharing the
ride. People can sign up for
NuRide and begin logging to accrue points towards great rewards! Those
who take commuter rail to work or bike to a friend's house can accrue
points good towards restaurant coupons and discounts from local and
national retailers. NuRide also provides measurements to calculate the
money saved, the number of drive-alone trips reduced and the
positive environmental impact. Representatives
of local human service organizations attend the every-other-month Community Partnership meeting
at St. Vincent's
organized by United
Neighbors of Fall River.
