The IE Commuter program, jointly funded by the San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA) and the Riverside County Transportation Commission (RCTC), has been honored with the Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Industry Impact Award at the 39th Annual International Conference of the Association for Commuter Transportation (ACT) in New Orleans, Louisiana. This prestigious award recognizes initiatives that have made substantial strides in advancing transportation demand management, improving mobility, reducing traffic congestion, and enhancing air quality.
The recognition of the IE Commuter program stems from its successful efforts in shifting solo drivers towards shared commuting alternatives. The program achieves this through collaborations with employers, incentive programs, educational resources, and the use of ride-matching technology. Serving over 4.6 million residents in the Inland Empire region, the program effectively connects commuters to options such as carpooling, vanpooling, and public transit.
These initiatives not only enable residents to save time and reduce travel costs but also contribute significantly to lowering emissions and improving air quality within the region. The IE Commuter program plays a vital role in fostering sustainable transportation practices and promoting a healthier environment for the communities it serves.
