Car Club project
In 2011, PACT received a Cumbria County Council Neighbourhood Forum grant to undertake a study into the feasibility of establishing a car sharing club in Penrith.
Athough there is some interest in such a car club, the report finds that it is not viable to set one up at the moment. It recommends looking at various low-risk alternatives.
Please help Michael Hallam conduct a street survey to determine interest in the proposed Penrith Car Share Club.
Come along at 10:30am prompt if you would like to help for an hour or three.
A discussion evening on the topic of transport, including a brief presentation of the car share club report by Michael Hallam. We are pleased to have in attendance Pat Godwin, Locality Transport Officer from the Integrated Transport Unit at the Environment Directorate within Cumbria County Council.
This is not a formal talk, so please ask questions and contribute ideas. If there are any specific topics you would like covered, please contact us in advance.

With soaring car fuel prices, increasing road tax, constant fluctuations in insurance premiums and current uncertainty in the running and maintenance of public transport, you may be wondering whether there's a better way for us to make the best and most efficient use of our vehicles and transportation.
The proposed Penrith Car share Club was featured on the PACT page of Eden Local in May 2011:
