TRIPDA URGES MOTORISTS TO CARPOOL THIS ‘BALIK KAMPUNG’ SEASON

Tripda Carpooling reduces traffic congestion, travel costs & carbon footprint

Tripda, an online carpooling platform that connects car drivers and passengers heading the same way is urging all motorists travelling back to their hometowns this festive season to carpool and helping to ease congestion on highways.

According to PLUS officials, traffic volume along the North-South Expressway is expected to reach 1.5 million vehicles on peak days – 18th and 19th February 2015 as well as on 21st and 22nd of February 2015.

Tripda believes that carpooling is the fastest way to reduce traffic congestion on highways while reducing travel cost with the driver and passengers sharing cost. “Traffic volume can be reduced tremendously if single-occupant vehicles heading the same direction were to carpool,” said Victor Ang, Tripda Malaysia’s Country Manager. “Single-occupant vehicles in Klang Valley make up more than 70% of the total number of vehicles travelling on the road everyday,” added Ang.
