Carpooling

Dartmouth College encourages carpooling as a way to lessen the parking demand and the traffic congestion on campus. Anyone interested in carpooling and/or looking for others to carpool with may contact the Parking Office at 603-646-2340, the Dartmouth Zimride matching program (http://zimride.dartmouth.edu), or the Upper Valley Rideshare at 1-802-295-1824 (http://www.uppervalleyrideshare.com/).

A formal carpool can be formed if two or more people commuting to campus ride together. They can choose to use the same car or switch off using their cars as they choose. There is a reduced fee per person for two-person carpools. Each carpool will receive four (4) passes per month that can be used when unable to carpool. Additional days may be purchased at $5.00 each. Employees who form carpools of 3 or more people can park for free and may have a dedicated parking space posted for their pool; in addition each carpool will receive four passes per month that can be used when unable to carpool.

To register your carpool with the College you need to go to the Parking Office located at 6 Vox Lane, McKenzie Hall together to enroll. Registration forms and carpool forms will need to be completed and the fee paid (for two-person carpools). Payment may be made by cash, check, visa, master card, or payroll deduction (you must be a permanent employee to elect payroll deduction).

Employees who do not meet the hire date criteria for a green on-campus permit may join a carpool with others having green permits.
