  • For Immediate Release
    For Immediate Release Terrapass scores touchdown with Lyft to Offset Carbon Emissions at University of Michigan Football Games Houston, Texas – October 6, 2017: Terrapass, a member of the Just Energy Group, and a leader in the fight against climate change, has partnered with Lyft, the fastest growing on-demand transportation service in the US, to offset carbon emissions associated with travel for all University of Michigan football games for the 2017/2018 season. Michigan Stadium, located in Ann Arbor, is the largest stadium in the United States and home to the Michigan Wolverines. It’s also the second largest stadium in the world. Patrons travelling to the stadium can play an important part in helping the environment simply by selecting Lyft as their choice of transportation to and from the venue for football games. Every single Lyft ride in Ann Arbor on game day will be balanced with carbon offsets that terrapass will purchase. In fact, terrapass will not only offset travel in Ann Arbor during Michigan football home games, but away games, as well. The carbon offsets will be sourced from a local project, the South Kent Landfill in Byron Center, MI. For the Michigan Wolverine’s first home game, Lyft offset more than 10,000 miles! "We realize that game day can put a large strain on the physical environment of Ann Arbor, and we want to do our part to reduce the impact. Lyft believes in the power of rideshare to not only reduce congestion, but build community. We’re proud to partner with terrapass to help the Ann Arbor community while reinforcing to passengers that it matters how you get there, said Elliot Darvick, General Manager for Lyft in Southeast Michigan.

  • Painting the Future
    Stanford eCorner Painting the Future Ann Miura-Ko, Floodgate 26-08-2020 URL: https://ecorner.stanford.edu/in-brief/painting-the-future/ Stanford Management Science and Engineering lecturer and Floodgate founding partner Ann Miura-Ko explains why she made a crucial early investment in Zimride, which later became Lyft. Founders John Zimmer and Logan Green, she recalls, were able to paint a compelling vision of the future in which better transportation options would enable more efficient communities. Transcript - Back in, I think it was 2010 00:00:07,700 is when John and Logan came to pitch Floodgate on what was originally called Zimride.. And Zimride was a platform that enabled carpooling for corporations, as well as universities.. And the vision of the world that they actually painted, actually describes a lot of what Lyft does today.. And so this is sort of a good example of mission-driven founders who really believe in a vision of the future, and how that transcends different products.. So the message that John and Logan came to Floodgate with in the early days, was look, we believe actually transportation is about to change.. The fact that we have social networks now, and people can be connected to one another digitally actually implies something really fundamentally different.. And when transportation changes, actually the world changes.. And they demonstrated this in just the United States alone, if you look at the fabric of society, you would have canals, you would have railways, and then you would have highways.. And if you just look at the map of where cities developed, it was very true that waterways, railways, and highways were actually the ways in which cities were created.

  • Exploration of the Current State and Directions in the Emerging Field of Dynamic Ridesharing Platforms
    Middle States Geographer, 2014, 47: 68-78 EXPLORATION OF THE CURRENT STATE AND DIRECTIONS IN THE EMERGING FIELD OF DYNAMIC RIDESHARING PLATFORMS Joseph J. Di Gianni Department of Earth and Environmental Studies Montclair State University Montclair, NJ 07043 ABSTRACT: Automobility has advanced since the postwar decline of public transportation and its near universal replacement by single-occupant vehicles (SOVs) throughout much of the developed economies. Even so- called “transit friendly” economies of the Global South have seen shifts in their modes of transportation to systems that are predominantly SOV-based (Cervero, 2013). Intensive infrastructure expansion within emerging economies indicates that the SOV is being adopted at a rate similar to the developed economies of one hundred years ago. In Henry Ford's quote “With mobility comes freedom and progress” mobility becomes universally interpreted as “automobility”. Grave concern is linked to the continuation of the SOV model and its consequences for an environment taxed by an ever-expanding transportation sector. A paradigm shift, however, in the SOV-driven model, has been detected coming not from transportation but the different domains of information and communication technologies (ICT). This review examined the current state and direction of dynamic ridesharing (DRS), an emerging technology driven by recent innovations in ICT over the last two decades (Siddiqi & Buliung, 2013). DRS matches drivers and riders in real-time using Internet and mobile technology, and are single- occurrence events organized on short notice (Amey, Attanucci, & Mishalani, 2011). We conclude with a case study of DRS from its roots in San Francisco, CA. The city provides a present-day template for emerging themes when DRS is introduced into the present-day urban transportation system.

  • Lyft's Rapid Surge in the Rideshare Sector
    VC20033 Lyft’s Rapid Surge in the Rideshare Sector Joseph Conde University of the Incarnate Word Ryan Lunsford, Ph.D. University of the Incarnate Word VC20033 Abstract Lyft is a rideshare company that has successfully provided convenient and cost-effective transportation services for 22.9 million people across the United States (Iqbal, 2020). The company was established in the Summer of 2012 and by 2019, Lyft increased both the total number of customers and the crucial rides per customer metric leading to a valuation of nearly $24 billion (Madrigal, 2019). The rise began in 2017 when Lyft began increasing its earnings rapidly after pitfalls from its primary competitor, Uber, which had several ethical and legal scandals that received intense media coverage (Carson, 2017). In the subsequent months, Lyft realized a 130% rise in the number of rides from the previous year and launched service in 160 new cities, increasing Lyft’s percentage of market share to 48% (Kerr, 2018). Lyft’s competitive advantage relative to its rivals includes maintaining a transparent, trustworthy reputation, resolving customer and employee concerns quickly and equitably, and providing a safe ride experience that enables riders to conveniently and affordably enjoy their transportation service (Srivastava, 2016). Lyft prioritizes both the relationships that it has with its employees and the industry-leading rates that it charges per ride (Oswald & Revilla, 2020). The company has emphasized improvements to Lyft services by concentrating on customer data analytics, implementing rideshare capabilities to minimize fees, and providing customers a monthly membership subscription that is expected to generate eight times as much revenue in the next 12 years (Forbes, 2018).
