Origin
Summary
This report responds to City Council's direction (July 6-8, 2010), that the Director, Fleet Services implement a pilot project with respect to the use of car share vehicles and report back to Government Management Committee after a one year period.
In February 2014, Fleet Services established a one-year car sharing pilot with AutoShare. The objective of this pilot was to explore whether car sharing is a feasible option to reduce the City's transportation related costs. Results of this pilot indicate the potential long term benefit of implementing a car share program for City of Toronto Divisions and Agencies, including the use of car share technology in managing existing City Fleet vehicles, through improved utilization.
