Técnico Lisboa carpooling platform is now available allowing all members of IST community to share rides between the campuses (Alameda, Taguspark and CTN).

Carpooling is a simple and effective way of reducing the travel costs to and from Técnico, thus having a very positive impact on the environment and on the reduction of energetic consumption associated to the academic community mobility.

In addition, it contributes to the sustainability of the campuses, helps to relieve traffic in the city of Lisbon and avoids parking problems.

By using this carpooling platform, all people who study and work at Técnico will have more time to relax and get to know each other during ride-sharing, developing and improving human relations.

This platform is exclusively addressed to IST academic community.

The platform is available online or through the App “Técnico Lisboa Carpooling”, for Android and IOS. The user must log in using Fenix systems (CAS credentials).
