Dear <<First Name>>,

Thank you for staying connected with us by reading our newsletters and participating in our programs.
Today is Transit Worker Appreciation Day! We hope you’ll join the celebration by making an extra effort to thank your operators, or by simply smiling and waving when you board the shuttle (or whichever mode you take). To express your gratitude and support, you can also Tweet a photo of yourself at the shuttle stop or relaxing on the shuttle, using #TransitAppreciation and tagging us @SMCountyCommute.

Wherever you work, however you commute- we are here for you!

In community,
Commute.org team

We are happy to report that 428 participants logged 21,104 trips and saved a total of 154 tons of CO2 through our Winter Promotion! Thanks to all those who logged trips and participated in our Winter Commuter Promotion!
Congrats to our three raffle winners: Scott J., Bachir C., and Bianca F.

Stay tuned for our upcoming Spring Promotion beginning in April!

It's time to start preparing for #BikeMonth in May! To help celebrate bicycling we need your help to find our Bike Champion of the Year (BCOY) for San Mateo County!
Do you know someone who is truly committed to riding their bike for everyday transportation, forgoing motorized vehicles to reduce their carbon footprint and lessen their impact on the environment whenever possible? How about a cyclist who inspires others to get out and pedal — maybe for the first time or to start again? Then nominate them for a Bike Champion of the Year Award!
Nominations can be made between March 4 and April 1, 2021. Anyone is eligible and you can submit more than one name. One Champion will be chosen from each Bay Area county.

BCOY Nomination Form

Commute.org reminds passengers to follow these safety measures when riding:

Face coverings must be worn at all times, including onboard and at shuttle stops. This requirement will be strictly enforced
Practice physical distancing when choosing a seat on the shuttle
Wash or sanitize your hands before and after
Avoid touching your face
Cough or sneeze into your elbow
Stay home if you feel sick

Hand sanitizers are installed on all vehicles, and at present, ridership allows for ample social distancing.
