Describe your project :
MOTOWA is a user-friendly carpooling and ride-sharing application that connects passengers with verified drivers traveling on the same route. Using Motowa, a driver traveling to a destination will schedule a ride and a passenger going on the same route will book the ride. This approach allows the driver to share travel costs (fuel and toll gate fees) with passengers who in turn enjoy convenient travel experiences at affordable prices. By doing so, Motowa's innovative ride-sharing solution addresses pressing social and environmental challenges present in urban transportation systems. Traditional modes of transportation contribute to environmental degradation through CO2 emissions and noise pollution as a result of overcrowded spaces and unhygienic conditions in vehicles. Motowa mitigates these issues by reducing single vehicle occupancy, thereby lowering CO2 emissions and alleviating overcrowding and noise pollution. Moreover, safety concerns associated with traveling alongside unverified drivers/passengers can lead to stress and anxiety, particularly affecting vulnerable groups like women, children and the over aged population. Motowa prioritizes safety and peace of mind by verifying drivers and passengers, enabling safer, more inclusive transportation environments. This contributes to gender equality and enhances overall well-being, aligning with efforts to create sustainable and inclusive cities.
