2010 Commuter Challenge

The Rhode Island Bicycle Coalition and RIPTA’s Commuter Resources group would like to challenge all Rhode Island residents to join us for the 2010 Commuter Challenge. The goal of the challenge is to see how many people we can get to choose a more environmentally friendly mode of transportation. If you typically drive alone in the car how about carpooling or taking the bus? If you are already a bus commuter, how about trying out bicycle commuting?

When is the challenge running? For the entire month of May

What do I need to do? Go to the 2010 Commuter Carbon Reduction Challenge applet and sign up for an account. Log whether or not you commuted and your mode(s) of transportation for every day of the week.

Why should I join the challenge? You’ll be helping the environment, you’ll be reducing congestion on the streets, and if you bike or walk for your commute you’ll be helping to minimize your waistline while commuting.
