Why RideMates
Why carpool this route?
Long commute, big savings
Rockingham to the CBD is far enough that fuel and parking add up fast. Splitting with two passengers cuts the cost by 60%.
Mandurah Line plus a transfer
The train requires a transfer for many Rockingham suburbs and gets you to a station, not your street. Carpools run direct.
Reliable Kwinana Freeway corridor
The Kwinana Freeway sees thousands of daily commuters. Recurring carpool rides run morning and evening, often via Cockburn Central.
