Employees of the cantonal and local administration as well as private individuals can create a carpool among themselves.
Currently, they are four parking areas available in the city as a destination or meeting point for joint departures.

- Leave your car at home for your spouse to use
- Payment is made through bartering – you drive today, I’ll drive tomorrow – or with a surprise gift like a nice bottle of wine
- To start things off: Only look for a carpool on one day or half-day
