Department of Parking and Transportation wishes to reduce number of cars in Charlottesville area through Zipcar

The University Department of Parking and Transportation will introduce a new car-sharing program on Grounds next Tuesday, in hopes of decreasing the volume of cars in Charlottesville, Director Rebecca White said.

"It's an alternative to owning a car or bringing a car to Grounds," she said. "It might reduce how much you use a car and it might give families [the opportunity to] leave a car at home."
