Save money and help the environment - share a lift
Residents of the Scottish Borders now have the opportunity to sign up to a car-sharing scheme. The scheme provides details
of drivers who are willing to car share or seeking a lift not just locally, but nationally.
www.tripshareborders.com has been created to help you quickly and easily find someone who shares your specific journeys.
- Free to use you simply share your travel costs
- Find drivers and passengers anywhere instantly
- Help reduce congestion
- Help reduce pollution
- Our average user saves £1,090 per year
- 134,019 members and over a million journeys registered
- Stay anonymous if you want, just take a look!
The tripshare scheme is funded by the Scottish Executive through the South East of Scotland Transport Partnership (SESTRAN) and supported by Scottish Borders Council.

The Council shows the way
Here in the Council we are leading the way with our own scheme to encourage our staff to share a lift to work. If you work for the Council, or even know someone who does, see the Council's own tripshare page.
