PositiveImpact Implementing effective carpooling programs could significantly decrease single-occupancy vehicle use along the A1 motorway, potentially leading to reduced emissions, lower air pollution, and improved overall public health. In turn, this could foster a culture of shared transport and community engagement, driving sustainable development for future generations. Additionally, if successful, the infrastructure for carpooling could inspire other cities to adopt similar initiatives, creating a ripple effect of environmental consciousness and cooperative mobility solutions in Switzerland.

NegativeImpact Without comprehensive and sustained promotion and incentives, carpooling programs may struggle to achieve participation goals, leaving the issue of congestion unaddressed. Additionally, reliance on app-based solutions may exclude lower-income individuals who lack access to technology, leading to increased socioeconomic disparities and reducing the initiative's effectiveness. Furthermore, if this alternative delays necessary infrastructure advancements, it could result in escalating congestion and deteriorating air quality for future generations.
