Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED) Transportation Credits
LEED provides up to 26 points for Transportation Credits across the various building categories. How a building occupant travels to and from the building is an important factor in making it sustainable. Have you explored every LEED credit and transportation advantage? Does your LEED building designation include a full commitment to sustainable transportation practices?
With a LEED Accredited Professional on-staff, MetroPool can help you achieve and report transportation credits, engage building occupants to participate and keep your program moving toward success. Services include:
- Transportation Surveys
MetroPool will conduct a transportation survey of your employees to calculate your Alternative Transportation Rate (ATR) and identify transportation options that will increase the ATR at your site.
- Comprehensive Alternative Transportation Programs
MetroPool has been delivering comprehensive Alternative Transportation Programs since 1980. Whether your location is on a train line or nestled in a suburban office park, MetroPool can identify transportation options and supporting strategies that will encourage commuters to use alternatives to driving alone.

- Bicycle Programs
A good bicycle program is more than a bike rack. It can include showers and/or changing areas for cyclists, special events, bicycle lockers, incentive programs, locating near a bicycle network and other strategies to encourage bicycling. MetroPool can design a bicycle program that will maximize bicycling to your location.
