About us…

As part of the Government’s Commitment to Climate Change we have developed Journeymatch.im with Liftshare, the largest provider of car sharing facilities in the UK. This allows Isle of Man residents to arrange car or other transport sharing here on Island and in the UK for those whose business takes them there.

Journeymatch is based upon the following objectives:

To widen travel choices and make travel by sustainable methods more attractive to everyone;
To reduce the effects of travel activities on the environment;
To reduce our carbon footprint;
To help reduce the impact of congestion by reducing the need for unnecessary travel;
To help improve road safety and minimise the level of traffic accidents for all types of travel;
To provide a leadership role in the community and promote the uptake of Journeymatch by other organisations in the community.

A key feature of the site is a free facility that allows users to find potential drivers and passengers to share their journey to and from work with. Sharing journeys reduces the numbers of cars on the road, helps to cut your fuel costs and provides an innovative alternative to the more traditional forms of commuting. Journeymatch.im also provides links to useful travel information such as bus and train timetables, cycles guides and local maps.
