Switch Your Trips in October

Switch Your Trips (SYT) promotion has officially begun! It’s the perfect time to try a new way to get around.

What if changing just a few driving trips a month could help you save money, reduce stress, get more active, or spend less time behind the wheel?

That’s exactly what Switch Your Trips is all about.

Beginning October 1, commuters across Washington are challenged to switch drive-alone trips for sustainable alternatives like transit, carpooling, vanpooling, biking, walking, rolling, passenger ferry travel, skateboarding, or a combination of modes.

Log at least 10 qualifying trips during October and you’ll be entered for a chance to win prizes, including a $1,500 grand prize, a $500 prize, and more.

Whether you’re ready to make a big change or simply try something new once a week, this is a great opportunity to explore your transportation options.

Contact me, your Employee Transportation Coordinator, Mary Lou Ames, at: mames@shoreline.edu for assistance in planning your trip. All employees are encouraged to participate!
