Learn More About Alternative Modes

When you carpool, ride the bus or light rail, walk to work, ride your bike to the office or even take advantage of your employer’s telework or compressed work week options, you are contributing to an important Valley wide objective: cleaner air.  Not only do you save money and ease traffic congestion by using alternative modes, you help to reduce the estimated 770 tons of carbon monoxide and 3,000 tons of particulates released in Valley skies every day.  Learn more about each mode by clicking the links below:
