2010 Triad Commute Challenge

April 10 - July 10, 2010
Share the ride, clean the air.

Take the challenge, its easy! Pledge to use an alternate commute option prior to July 10th. The Triad Commute Challenge encourages participants to try an alternate commute option (bike, walk, bus, vanpool, carpool, telecommute) at least one time over the three month period instead of driving alone. For more information, please visit the 2010 Triad Commute Challenge website.

Join us in kicking off the Challenge and opening the Smog Season at the Commuter Dash,, Saturday, April 10th in Triad Park. The Commuter Dash is a 3 mile road race with prizes given for the fastest runner and best commuter costume. Bring the whole family! Registration is free when you pledge to the challenge.


“Take Action!"

The choices we make each day have an impact on our air quality and the environment in a positive way or a negative way.

  • You can choose to reduce the emissions that contribute to air pollution and negative environmental impacts.
  • You can choose to protect your health when the air quality is bad.

Please look at our Driving Tips Brochure to learn how to save gas, money, and provide for a cleaner and healthier environment. If you are interested in hosting an onsite visit where we can talk to your group or employees about commuting options, please call PART at 336-662-0002.

Visit our Commuting Options page.
