Liftshare, a car sharing platform, has been launched as a pilot scheme for local residents in East Garston, Chaddleworth, Great Shefford and Hungerford.
If you are often travelling alone and wondering how inefficient it is when others are probably doing similar journeys, or you need to be somewhere and just don’t have the means to get there and could do with a lift, then this could be for you!
Sharing journeys using the ‘Liftshare’ scheme is flexible and you only share with people who you choose to connect with – you remain in complete control. Only residents with West Berkshire postcodes can sign up to the scheme so it’s very much a local initiative which will give residents the confidence to try it out. This is a positive step for the community, the environment and your bank balance too!
Residents who live near or travel to the areas included in the pilot are invited to find out more and give it a go by signing up for FREE online .

The London Road Industrial Estate in Newbury is to be renamed Bond Riverside as part of a multi-million pound regeneration scheme.
Competition winners collected their prize last week at our Identity Project and Urban Design Careers event for their innovative entry of Bond Riverside
The LRIE Identity Project was a competition aimed at 16 to 18 year olds in which schools and colleges across West Berkshire were invited to put forward their visions for the rebranding of the London Road Industrial Estate.
The winning students, Molly, Xander, and Toby from Newbury College, have not only won £1,000 cash for their college, but now also earn a historical prize of proudly having their name ‘Bond Riverside’ as the new name for the industrial estate.
