Make your commute smarter with Metro Vanpool

Long commute? High gas costs? Metro Vanpool gives you a better way to get to work — and puts you in charge. The program is subsidized by the Metropolitan Council and open to anyone who lives or works in the seven county metro area.

As a volunteer driver, you lead a group of 4–15 riders who share the commute at least three days a week. You get backup drivers, accessible vehicle options, and support for low income riders. Plus, Metro Vanpool pays for the fuel used on your commute and you stay eligible for Guaranteed Ride Home.

  • Predictable travel times and less stress
