Vanpool? More like VanCool. It’s ride-sharing that actually makes your commute better. Transportation Connections is excited to collaborate with Commuting Solutions, Commute with Enterprise, and Way to Go to help more people who work in Boulder take advantage of the most flexible and convenient shared transportation option out there.
Tired of white-knuckling it through morning traffic solo? Vanpool is your ticket to a stress-free ride to work. Let someone else deal with the hassle of driving while you catch up on the news, answer emails, or actually drink your coffee while it’s still hot. Plus, you’ll save serious cash – no more dropping a fortune on gas, car maintenance, and parking fees. Your employer can benefit, too: by sponsoring a vanpool program, businesses can earn up to $125K per year through the state Alternative Transportation Options Tax Credit. The City of Boulder also offers a generous subsidy of $200 per month for employers that provide vanpool as a commuting option, saving businesses money up front.
The best part? Our vanpool partner, Commute With Enterprise, gets that not everyone’s in the office every day. With new flexible scheduling, you only pay for the days you actually travel to work. No commitment anxiety here.
Whether you’re coming from Broomfield, Longmont, or farther away, there are more vanpool options than ever to get you to Boulder without the solo drive stress. Think of vanpool as your personal chauffeur service, except way cheaper and with better conversation.
