Support ranges from carpool matching and transit information to guidance on flexible hours and bike-friendly workplaces. Employers can also benchmark how their teams travel and set realistic goals.

For small employers, a few simple steps often help the most: share route options with new hires, post a carpool board and review start times. The chamber can connect members with the program’s workplace specialist.
