Connection works directly with employers to educate employees on
the benefits of using alternative modes of transportation. The
program raises public awareness about the connection between
transportation choices, air quality, and traffic congestion.
Commuters can find rideshare matches through our online
database of over 8,500 participants. A representative will help you
develop both a program and a timetable for introducing a work site
