When a region structures carpooling across an entire territory
Complementing rail and bus services
Connecting rural areas with urban and suburban centres
Expanding the mobility mix
Reducing commuter traffic without new infrastructure
Launched in October 2022, Région Occitanie’s carpooling policy addresses a structural challenge: following France’s 2019 Mobility Orientation Law, very few local communities in the region assumed responsibility for mobility. This left large parts of the territory without a viable alternative to private cars, while regional rail and intercity bus services could not meet every mobility need.
In response, the region introduced an open multi-operator agreement, co-funding trips provided by several platforms, including Karos, across its area of responsibility. Karos also implements the regional policy locally in four EPCI: Lomagne Gersoise, Frontonnais, Aubrac and Aux Sources du canal du Midi. Monthly passenger trips exceeded 11,000 by June 2023 and reached a new record of 11,339 in June 2026.
