The service connects everyday drivers with verified passengers heading in the same direction, reducing travel costs, emissions, and congestion across the city.

Founded in Sunderland, the initiative has been launched across the region with a mission to make travel across the North East cheaper, greener, and more community-driven.

Co-Ride is a shared-journey platform designed to connect drivers with spare seats to passengers travelling the same way.
