Abstract The purpose of this toolkit is to elaborate upon the recent changes in ridesharing, introduce the wide variety that exists in ridesharing programs today, and the developments in technology and funding availability that create greater incentives for people to abandon single occupant vehicles in favor of a shared ride. The intended audience is public sector transportation agencies; however the toolkit also highlights the private sector's role and opportunities for public-private partnerships. This report concludes with a database of examples of local, regional, statewide, national, and international rideshare programs and providers, as well as hyperlinks to their respective websites, presented as a resource for readers.
