C-TRAN Vanpool Program
For commuters unable to utilized fixed-route bus service, C-TRAN has the answer! Our commuter Vanpool Program provides a safe and effective way to commute while sharing the ride and expense. For groups of five (5) to 12 riders who share a similar commute, C-TRAN will lease a mini or full-size van (depending on the group size) on a month-to-month basis; no contract required.
How it Works
- With the lease of a van, all the fuel, insurance, and maintenance needed to operate the van is provided, as well as an Emergency Ride Home Program designed to give you peace of mind knowing you have a ride whenever a personal emergency arises;
- Each vanpool group chooses their own drivers and sets their own route and schedule. So, whether you commute from Vancouver to Longview, or Salem to Vancouver, our Vanpool Program can accommodate any commute that is at least 10 miles in each direction.
If you or anyone you know would like to participate in the Vanpool Program, please have them contact the program at (360) 906-7510.
