MetroPool makes starting and operating a commute mobility program easy!

We offer employers a wealth of information and valuable services to help employees find the best way to travel to work. These services include:

Customized Commute Mobility Plan
MetroPool staff identifies available commute options (such as carpooling, vanpooling, transit, walking, bicycling, and telecommuting), identifies appropriate program strategies and services, then develops customized promotional materials. MetroPool continues the relationship with the employer by providing ongoing program evaluation and consultation.

Ridematching
MetroPool works with each employer to gather information from employees about their commute trips. Complete survey support is available, including email-based surveys. MetroPool and the employer determine the most appropriate method for matching employees for potential carpools, vanpools and transit options.

1. Carpool Formation
   A carpool is the easiest ridesharing arrangement of all, but a little support can keep it moving on the road to success. MetroPool helps employers promote carpools, helps identify potential carpool groups, offers route planning and other assistance to carpool groups and finds new riders when necessary.
   
   
2. Vanpool Formation
   Put two or three carpool groups together in one van and presto, you get a vanpool. MetroPool assists employers in forming vanpools, taking care of driver and rider orientation, facilitating van delivery, and getting the new vanpool group together and on the road. Special incentives may be available in your area to help form and maintain a vanpool.

Shuttle Formation
Transit is a terrific commute option, but trains and buses can't always stop conveniently close to every worksite. MetroPool can help employers organize a shuttle service to nearby transit stations so employees can make their rail and bus connections in a timely manner. MetroPool can also work with public transit providers to alter existing service whenever possible.

Promotional Efforts
Employers can take full advantage of MetroPool's storehouse of information for employees. From ridesharing and transit information to commute cost comparisons, MetroPool can provide employers with promotional material either in print form or on disk to adapt materials for their own use. On-site events can also be held to promote available employer and/or transit services.

Custom Promotional Materials
Employers can tap MetroPool's expertise in developing promotional literature for commuters to produce customized promo pieces.

Company Relocation Services
