Think of all the time you'd have on your hands if they weren't on the wheel.
Would you like to have more money and less stress? The San Mateo County Commute Alternatives Program can do that for you.
Reduce Commuting Stress
Due to the number of cars on the road in many metropolitan areas, traffic jams, congestion, accidents, and other delays have become a commonplace, yet aggravating, part of the daily commute. Many people believe that this annoying-often twice daily-experience is just part of the normal work week. San Mateo County Commute Alternatives Program advocates a variety of new commuting choices to reduce commuting stress associated with traffic congestion. In turn, these solutions provide the following benefits to commuters:
Read, sleep, knit socks while commuting
Annual savings of hundreds of dollars
Increased productivity
Decreased stress and tension
Increased health and well-being
Potentially more leisure time
Reduced risk of traffic accidents and injury on the road
Saving Money on Commuting Expenses
Auto insurance, parking, gas, maintenance, wear and tear on commuter's personal vehicles, and tolls can add up to a considerable expense for the average commuter driving alone. San Mateo County employees opting to take an alternative method of transportation to work can save money by sharing expenses with others or eliminating personal vehicle-related expenses altogether.
Over 1,100 county employees are currently taking advantage of our public transit subsidy program by ordering their Caltrain, BART, Muni, SamTrans, AC Transit and Golden Gate transit tickets through our office. Come join your co-workers and discover the many advantages of taking public transit!
