On Monday, September 21, 2026, the first anniversary of Monts Covoit’ was celebrated in Villechenève. About twenty participants, drivers and passengers, gathered at the Milo’Bistrot to discuss their daily commutes and future shared journeys.
The assessment of this first year in Villechenève, presented by the Mobility service, is encouraging. Fifteen events led to the registration of 18 passengers, 23 drivers, and 6 mixed participants. Notably, 90% of trip requests found a driver, underscoring the initiative's effectiveness in supporting mutual aid and social connection.
The Monts Covoit’ service, aimed at promoting solidarity carpooling, is active in the communes of Chambost-Longessaigne, Haute-Rivoire, Larajasse, Saint-Laurent-de-Chamousset, Sainte-Foy-l’Argentière, Villechenève, and will soon extend to Brussieu.
