Workplace Innovation: Reinventing The Commute

By mobilizing corporate campuses, employers are transforming the workplace experience and making commutes easier.

Large, fast-growing companies face similar challenges: limited employee parking, non-stop hiring, and dynamic campuses that are constantly evolving.

commuteForward-thinking facilities executives are tackling these challenges with new transportation programs that transform the workplace experience, unifying private transit, public transit, and options such as vanpool, car sharing, and bike sharing under a single employer-sponsored commuter benefits program.

Making An Impact

Employer shuttle programs are putting up impressive metrics in areas such as Seattle, Denver, Boston, and Silicon Valley. In addition to contributing to regional goals for reducing single occupancy vehicles and congestion, they’re driving productivity, cost savings, and a happy, healthy workforce.

Once-elusive, corporate mobility metrics are now easy to calculate using tools that quantify the business benefit of commute-friendly workplaces. You can pinpoint how many fewer parking spaces you’ll need and the reduction in emissions.

commuteWith one Fortune 500 client, the Commute Alternatives program we manage on their behalf serves an estimated 400,000 rides per year with a fleet of more than 70 motor coaches, electric buses, and sedans, including Intercampus shuttles, Residential Bus Service for long-distance commuters, Last Mile shuttles to public transit, and On-Demand service — all coordinated onsite by WeDriveU.

Imagine the potential when your company is leading the way to reinvent commutes.
