and

supplies last. Please
contact the appropriate Transportation
Management Associations for

you for your participation
in this program. |
Sharing your ride to work
- in a carpool, vanpool, bus,
train, shuttles or
a combination of these
- is called ridesharing.
Commuting just 15 miles
each way can cost as
much as $ 1,764 per year.
Sharing the ride with just
one other person can cut
your commuting costs in
half.
The New Jersey Department of Transportation
(NJDOT) and its transportation
management associations (TMAs) statewide
can match you with others who wish to
share a ride to the same destination.
You can fill out an application
and request a matchlist of possible commute
partners. The TMAs can also provide you
with information about telecommuting
and alternative
work schedules.
The park
and ride locator is a good source
of information for planning your ridesharing
options. |
