If you work at an employer in Pierce County with 100 or more employees who work full-time and are scheduled to begin work between the hours of 6-9am, your worksite is affected by the Commute Trip Reduction Efficiency Act.Most large worksites have an Employee Transportation Coordinator (ETC) who promotes transportation options. Your ETC can be an important resource for users of all commute options, including cycling. Not only will they have information on the various Pierce Trips campaigns and contests you are eligible for, but the ETC may also know information specific to your worksite including the location of bicycle facilities, nearby bike trails or routes and the contact information for other employees who regularly bicycle. If you are interested in encouraging your employer to provide bicycle amenities, want to know more about your employers CTR program or want to start a bike team for the annual Commuter Contest, your ETC may be able to help.
