Covoit’Go routes are now available in the Sundgau region! Carpool for free and without a reservation on your daily commutes.
To best meet the transportation needs of residents in the Sundgau region, two routes have been established: one from the Altkirch train station to Waldighoffen via Hirtzbach and Illtal, and another to Seppois-le-Bas via Hirtzbach
With Covoit’Go, discover a simple and convenient way to carpool for your daily short-distance trips throughout the Sundgau region. Traveling alone is a thing of the past—fill those empty seats and do your part!
The Covoit’Go service is 100% free and requires no reservation. No app needed, no subscription, and no fixed schedules! It’s economical, eco-friendly, and community-minded!
The concept is the same as a public transit route: stops are set up along the routes, but here the buses are replaced… by private cars on the road that have empty seats! Covoit’Go carpool routes make your commutes easier by connecting drivers and passengers at Covoit’Go stops.
To take a ride with Covoit’Go
1- I go to the stop. If it’s a stop with an electronic sign, I press the button that corresponds to my destination. Otherwise, I stand next to the stop so that drivers can see me clearly.
2- If there’s an illuminated sign, my destination will be displayed there for 5 minutes. If it’s a static sign, I’ll give a thumbs-up and flash my best smile to signal to approaching drivers.
3- A driver sees my request on the illuminated sign or notices my raised thumb: they pull over to the designated spot to offer me a ride. And off we go for a little while together
