Problem
During the winter/spring months in Utah, skiers and snowboarders in Utah face significant challenges when trying to make it up to a resort. Specifically, these individuals are often delayed or unable to reach their destinations due to heavy traffic on roads and they struggle to find parking spots once they arrive, which leads to further delays and frustration. Additionally, the high number of cars on the roads and in the parking lots results in significant environmental impacts, including air pollution and carbon emissions.
Solution
Create a ride-sharing application for skiers and snowboarders in Utah to offer rides to one another. This app would enable individuals driving to popular ski resorts to connect with others in their area who are heading in the same direction, with the aim of reducing the number of cars on the road and easing traffic congestion. Also reducing the demand for parking spots at the resorts. Moreover, this app can promote carpooling and contribute to a reduction in the carbon emissions and air pollution associated with driving alone to ski resorts.
Overall, the ride-sharing app can offer an efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly solution for skiers and snowboarders to reach their destinations while improving the overall experience for all.
