'Get There Challenge' urges greener commutes - The Bulletin

"Starting Oct. 1, Oregonians will have the opportunity to rethink their travel habits through the annual Get There Challenge, a statewide competition that encourages walking, biking, transit use, carpooling or remote work in place of solo car trips. Organized by Commute Options, the two-week event runs through Oct. 14. Participants log non-single-occupancy-vehicle trips - whether for work, school, errands or recreation - and compete individually and in groups to earn prizes and support more sustainable travel."

"Top participants across 10 categories will receive $100 e-gift cards, and all participants are entered into drawings for additional local rewards. The goal is to promote healthier commuting, lower emissions and reduce dependence on alone driving. In addition to its competition element, the program provides a digital toolkit with resources for biking, walking, transit planning and remote work. The challenge also helps raise awareness of the variety of transportation options."
