Wake County
The Wake County program aims to increase awareness about available travel options to those working and living in Wake County along with the education to facilitate their utilization. We promote riding the bus, biking, walking, carpooling, vanpooling, teleworking, just not driving alone.
The program serves all 12 municipalities in Wake County to assist organizations in offering the best commute options for their employees or tenants. Whether it’s signing commuters up for the Free Emergency Ride Home program, finding the most convenient transit route, designing a hybrid work policy or telework program, or rideshare matching for a carpool buddy, all of the consulting and supporting materials are grant funded with no fees*.
Our program supports employers, property managers, and community organizations to revamp or create commuter programming. Let’s create strong commuter programming for your organization together. The Wake County program will work with your organization and help to tailor a program to:
- Attract and retain workers
- Hybrid workplace policy resources
