Alternative Transportation
Alternative transportation can be beneficial in many ways. Not
having to drive to work every day can help save both time and
money. It can also help the environment as it saves fuel and cuts
down on emissions. Walking and biking can be an excellent form
of exercise and can help boost your mood.
Clark College offers a number of programs as part of the
Washington State Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) Program. This
includes: discounted or free bus passes, carpool spots south of
PUB, a carpooling program organized through Human Resources,
a Bike to Work program that allows for you to get a free helmet
and a Walk to Work program that can get you a free umbrella.
Part of the CTR program is that if you come/go from work using
alternative transportation you are afforded a free ride home in
emergencies.
The CTR coordinator for the College is Ken
Pacheco, if you have specific questions contact
him at kpacheco@clark.edu.
