Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the campus’ suspension of operations, Transportation Services halted the enforcement and sale of parking permits on the UC Davis campus when the campus suspended operations in March. With the goClub being funded through the sale of parking permits and enforcement fines, we have had to make significant cuts to the benefits and subsidies for our members.goClub | goVanpool Details
Why choose goVanpool?
Vanpools are a group of 5-10 people who commute together to campus in a leased passenger van. Vanpools are becoming more popular for students, staff and faculty that live further from campus and are looking for a low-cost rideshare.
If you are willing to try vanpooling as your primary commute, we encourage you to connect with a coordinator in your area.
