Transportation and Parking Services is suggesting some New Year鈥檚 resolutions that are hard to argue with: Cut your stress level, save time and money, and help improve air quality.
You can do all of that by joining a vanpool, and you can learn more at information sessions this month (see details below). Each session will deal with a different commute: San Francisco and East Bay, El Dorado County and Folsom, and Elk Grove.
鈥淰anpooling is one of the most cost-effective, flexible and convenient commuting alternatives to driving alone to work,鈥 Leslie Mancebo of wrote in a recent on swag外流鈥 Sustainable 2nd Century website.
She goes on to describe the benefits, including complimentary parking passes that you can use when circumstances prevent you from riding in your vanpool; and emergency rides (TAPS will get you home, 8 a.m.-4 p.m. Monday through Friday).
The information meetings are scheduled as follows, all from noon to 1 p.m. in the Garrison Room, second floor, Memorial Union:
- Wednesday, Jan. 16 鈥 San Francisco and the East Bay
- Wednesday, Jan. 23 鈥 El Dorado County and Folsom
- Wednesday, Jan. 30 鈥 Elk Grove
For more information prior to the meetings, contact Mancebo, coordinator, Transportation Demand and Marketing, (530) 752-6453 or lmmancebo@ucdavis.edu.
