Car Travel Options

Access to cars

While Quarry Village makes it easy to not own a car, it has options for car use.

Zipcar offers a variety of car models and styles

Car Sharing and Rental

Need a car on occasion for a special trip? You can get quick access to a car when you need one, without the car payments, insurance, registrations fees, gassing up, maintenance and other hassles of car ownership. Quarry Village will have parking spaces for car sharing and rental cars near the Village Center.

Using City Car Share, Flexcar, and Zip Car, cars can be rented by the hour or for the whole day. These services have reserved parking spaces in San Francisco, Oakland, or Berkeley, where parking may be hard to find. Using a regular car rental agency, cars can be rented for away trips of several days.

Residents with a California driver license may enroll in the Quarry Car Share Program at no cost. You can then rent a car quickly over the web or by phone. You may arrange pick up at designated spaces near the Village Square or at a rental office on Mission Blvd., accessed by Village Bus.

If you already own a vehicle…

Car owners have several options:

• Reserved parking spaces:
  Over 70 covered parking spaces will be available for rent right on the edge of Quarry Village. Be prepared to pay around $125 a month for a spot.
• Cal State Students:
  Students can park on campus for $36 per quarter (3 months). Lots P and N are a three minute walk from the Village Center.
• Reserved lot on Mission Blvd.:
  For a less expensive reserved spot residents can also rent a space from a lot on Mission Blvd. for a certain price a month. This lot will be accessible by Village Bus and short walk, and can work for those with a tight budget or who don’t plan to use their car every day.
• Other Arrangements:
  You may make other arrangements for parking, such as leaving your car somewhere along the Rapid Bus line, or at the house of a family member or a friend.
