Commute Another Way Day is Maine’s annual employer-based
transportation event that promotes carpools, vanpools, public transit
(bus, ferry and rail where available), bicycling, and walking - as
cost-effective, healthy and enjoyable alternatives to driving alone to
work. All Maine employers and their employees are invited to
participate. Last year, more than 500 businesses and 5,000 commuters got
involved statewide, and helped to reduce traffic congestion and auto
emissions by eliminating 6,000 auto-trips, 62,000 auto-miles, 1.65 tons of
pollution, and $32,000 in commuting costs...in a single day! This year, Commute Another Way Day will be held on Wednesday, June 9, 2004. Mark your calendars, and visit http://www.gomaine.org/cawday/index.html for additional information. |
