« Covoiturons sur le pouce » is a flexible, simple and easy-to-use car-sharing initiative.
- A passenger wishes to go somewhere: all he is to do is going in a identified "car-sharing stop" and write its destination on a slate.
- A driver going throw the "car-sharing stop" will pick him up if he drives in the same direction.
Participants to the initiative have to subscribe and sign a charter. The subscription fee is only 2 euros. Participants can get a transport kit. It gathers:
- a sign to put in the car,
- a identified slate,
- a mobility handbook with regional transport options.
The City of Moissac has created a reflexion group for this initiative with the cities and towns in the surroundings: Saint-Nicolas de la Grave, Beaumont-de-Lomagne, Valence d’Agen, Lafrançaise, La Communauté de communes Quercy-Pays de Serres (Lauzerte), Boudou, Moissac et Durfort Lacapelette.
