The new carsharing program will contribute to the city’s transportation mode-shift goal of reducing single-occupied vehicle trips from its current rate of 70% to less than 50% over the next 20 years, an objective of the city’s comprehensive plan, Planning 2 Succeed.
Working in partnership with the nonprofit carsharing service Hourcar and Xcel Energy, the city of St. Paul, Minn., applied for federal funding through the Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program.
Hourcar partnered with Xcel Energy to convert to an all-electric fleet and shift to a hub-based, one-way carsharing service.
