Durham: Vanpool to NC State

Employees, do you have a long drive to campus? Save the wear and tear on your vehicle with a vanpool! Vanpools are similar to carpools, except the vans are leased by Enterprise and transport 4-15 passengers at a time. There's currently a big subsidy for vanpools starting in Durham! Email WolfTrails if you're interested in giving this a try.
