Co-cars - the hire by the hour car club for Exeter and the South West > a not for profit co-operative social enterprise

Exeter has got some pretty bad traffic problems:
Futures Forum: Improving Exeter's air quality and public transport through congestion-charging
Futures Forum: Gridlocked Devon >>> 'Devon Live' to debate "some of the major travel problems facing the county." >>> and to investigate "the attitude of local authorities to sustainable travel and highlight some of Devon's pollution hotspots"

There are solutions:
Futures Forum: Ride-sharing with BlaBlaCar
Futures Forum: Exeter is the UK's first city to launch an electric bike-sharing scheme

Another being electric car-sharing:
Futures Forum: The future of cars >>> "on-demand low-carbon mobility" >>> Transition Exeter event with Go-cars: Thurs 22nd Oct

The project is going very well, as in this recent piece in Devon Life:

Looks pretty good:
Co-cars - the hire by the hour car club for Exeter and the South West -Co-cars

Sidmouth could do with such a club - as remarked by a correspondent:

There are so many people like me who do not need to own a car. If we could hire one when needed that would be ideal. The residential roads are cluttered with cars!
