Drive Less Save More Campaign
The Drive Less Save More Campaign is a SW Washington/Portland Metro regional on-going campaign encouraging citizens to reduce the number of trips they make during the week to help reduce congestion in our area. The Drive Less/Save More Campaign seeks to increase awareness of the benefits of reducing single-person car trips. You can log onto the Drive Less Save More Campaign and pledge to reduce the number of single occupant vehicle trips they make and be eligible to win prizes from a monthly drawing. Pledge cards can also be obtained by contacting the CTR Administrator.
Bike to Work Month
The Bicycle Transportation Alliance (BTA) non-profit advocacy organization working in Oregon and Southwest Washington sponsors an annual Bike Commute Challenge in September. It is a friendly competition — workplace against workplace — with benefits for companies and individual cyclists when employees bike to work during the month of September. The workplaces with the highest percentage of commutes by bicycle during the month win!
