Mission Statement
Through healthy transportation choices, Commute Options encourages the wellness of individuals, a clean environment, and a strong economy. Commute Options represents transportation options in our community by educating citizens, businesses, and government about the value of carpooling, vanpooling, walking, bicycling, teleworking, and using public transportation.
Description
Commute Options runs several programs including Safe Routes to School, Walking School Bus, Friendly Driver and Drive Less Connect. Safe Routes to School teaches elementary and middle school students in the Bend LaPine School District, bicycle and pedestrian safety. Walking School Bus works in the Central Oregon region to lead more students along a planned, walking route to and from school. We work on a state wide level to educate and promote carpooling, vanpooling and transit options.
