SMART COMMUTE

Welcome to Westchester County's award winning program designed to encourage companies and their employees to use public transportation or commute alternatives for their commute to work.

Westchester County, like many other counties across the United States, experiences significant roadway congestion, particularly during the morning and evening rush hours.  Working together with the State of New York and the Federal Government, Westchester County is committed to reducing traffic congestion and air pollution and enhancing the quality of life in our County.

Westchester's SMART COMMUTE Program partners with the County's employers and their employees providing free information, education and services which assist and encourage alternatives to driving alone to work.  Westchester's SMART COMMUTE Program  is administered by the Commute Alternatives Unit of the County's Department of Transportation.  Funding for the program is provided by the N.Y.S. Department of Transportation, the Federal Government (CMAQ: congestion mitigation & air quality funds) and by Westchester County.
