Car Free Day is Almost Here

Written by Alberto Fernandez | September 2, 2020

As people return to the workplace, Arlington Transportation Partners (ATP) continues to encourage use of sustainable transportation methods that would provide a stress-free commute. Car Free Day, on September 22, is a day to celebrate reducing your carbon footprint and promoting a more sustainable environment. By pledging to go car free for the day, you earn a chance to win some wonderful prizes.

 

 

Reasons to Join Car Free Day

We all like to enjoy a stress-free commute. As hard as it might be to give up the car every day, why not start with just one day? There are several transportation modes in the area that offer a lot of benefits including reading the book that’s been collecting dust on your nightstand while you ride the Metro, enjoying the views of the city while riding a bus, or walking or riding your bike to take a mental break in between meetings. 

Take the pledge and win rewards

Commuter Connections makes it easy for you to take the pledge. When you pledge to bike, walk, ride Metro, telework, or use other sustainable modes, you’ll automatically receive a $30 reward gift card and be entered into a raffle for a chance to win additional prizes. 

Sharing is Caring

Spread the word about Car Free Day with your residents or employees, so they can join the growing movement of sustainable transportation. Contact Arlington Transportation Partners for additional downloadable resources related to all of the transportation options in Arlington.
