Benefits
Smarter commuting is a win-win for employers and employees.
WAY TO GO and our transportation partners help employers, economic development corporations, chambers of commerce and other workforce partners shift commuting habits and improve workforce transportation access.
We help leaders across region better understand their employees and transportation challenges facing their workforce, make connections, learn best practices and develop and implement custom commute plans. This means employers don’t have to wait for new infrastructure or service lines – they can make changes today that boost hiring and retention rates and support their employees.
Our Services
Let WAY TO GO help your organization find sustainable, healthy and affordable ways to work. Here’s what we offer.
Commute Assessment
We collaborate with you to conduct an in-depth custom assessment to identify the best commute options for your employees. We’ll survey your workers to learn where they live, how they get to work and identify any challenges getting to and from work. We’ll then prepare recommendations and connections to solutions that can help address the issues we’ve uncovered together.
Guaranteed Ride Home
This program ensures employees can get a ride home in the event of illness or emergency. They can simply call a cab, Uber or Lyft, and WAY TO GO will reimburse up to two trips annually.
Carpool Matching
Carpooling helps workers cut commuting costs and keep our region’s air clean. With our ridematching tool, employees can form carpools with co-workers or other commuters nearby.
Way to Go Coalitions
Collaborate with employers in the same industry, geographic area, or employment center as you to identify transportation solutions. There is strength in numbers.
Green Commute Challenge
Join some of the region’s top companies for this free online challenge each fall. Show your environmental leadership, save money, build workplace culture, win prizes and take care of our air.
