Explore Your Commute Options This Spring

RIDE Solutions is partnering with local businesses and organizations and DRPT this spring to promote commuting beyond the single-occupant vehicle. Several events are planned for April and May including DRPT’s Connect Businesses from April 15 through May 27 and Bike Month activities to include a Bike to Work Challenge Week May 19 through May 27.

The Bike to Work Challenge Week will kick off with a local event to encourage those who can to cycle to work at least one day during the week. Those who log their cycling commute in the ConnectingVA App will be entered in a local prize drawing. We are also recruiting partners and employers who would like to get in on the fun for Bike Month. You can learn more about how to participate as an organization by contacting Christy Straight at cstraight@nrvrc.org.

Stay tuned to our social media for more details later this month on these commuter events and how you can join in.

The ConnectingVA app helps you find carpool matches for work, the right bus at the right time to get to your destination, and even cycling routes and travel times. The app is available as an interactive website or in the Google Play and Apple app stores. Visit: https://ridesolutions.org/ to link to the app for your preferred platform.
