Carpooling

With lecovoiturage, several people use the same vehicle.

It is more economical and reduces the number of cars on the road.

With lecovoiturage, the journey is shared; so is the price! Sharing a journey with a work colleague, a neighbor, or even a stranger becomes simple, advantageous, and safe for everyone in the area!

This solution, integrated into the range of mobility services offered to metropolitan residents, is operated by Karos and takes the form of a carpooling mobile application for commuting and any other type of travel. The key is benefits and incentives offered to both drivers and passengers.

Pic de pollution
Plan d’Urgence Transports

En raison d’un épisode de pollution (particules PM10) sur le département des Bouches-du-Rhône, la vigilance pollution est activée.

La procédure d’alerte de niveau 1 est déclenchée pour le vendredi 17  janvier 2025.

La Métropole Mobilité vous accompagne et propose des solutions de mobilité durable.

Pour cette journée :

Les 30 premières minutes de chaque trajet sur levélo

en libre-service à Marseille sont gratuites
(puis facturées 0,05 €/min au-delà) pendant toute la durée de l’épisode de pollution.

 

Délaissez votre voiture et privilégiez les modes de déplacement doux :
la marche à pied, levélo, levélo+

Demain l’arrivée d’un vent d’ouest et les précipitations feront baisser les niveaux de particules fines. L’alerte ne sera pas reconduite
