Services

Smart Commute provides a number of services to help your employees choose alternatives to the car for their commute.

We start by collecting baseline information about your employees and their commute habits through an employee commuter survey and a site assessment. Based on the results of these baseline studies, we will develop a plan that may include work in some or all of the following three categories:

    1. Marketing

    Outreach programs to help raise awareness of your Smart Commute program and encourage employees to choose alternatives to driving alone.

    Elements of the marketing program include, amongst others:

    • Bike Month (held annually in May)
    • Clean Air Commute (held annually in June)
    • Smart Commute week (held annually in October)
    • Carpool n' Win Campaign (held annually in February)
    • Workshops and focus groups
    • Individualized marketing campaigns based on your needs.

    2. Policy

    Smart Commute offers expert advice and counseling on the development of commute-friendly policies including:

    • Flexible work arrangements like flexible start times and compressed work weeks
    • Telework (working from home)
    • Reimbursement policies for business-related trips.

    3. Infrastructure
