RideSolutions has designed successful employee commuter programs for employers located in our 12-county service area. Whether you are searching for additional green measures, need to relieve parking congestion, or want to have a third party assist your employees with reliable, affordable transportation options, RideSolutions has the answer. We’ll provide our consulting services and outreach materials at no cost.

A typical program starts with a survey, so that we know how your employees currently commute, and what transportation modes might be of interest. We work with your point of contact to see that information is available for your employees. Studies have shown that when employees have access to information about alternate transportation options, they are more likely to choose to not drive alone.

In addition to providing materials, we can even come to your site to be available to answer questions. If you need assistance with setting up a telework program, we can provide an easy toolkit. Let’s work together to develop a program that meets your needs and is within your guidelines.

Call our outreach coordinator, Janet Berardi, to set up an appointment at your site to discuss how we can assist you: 614.233.4132 or jberardi@morpc.org
