Smart Commute

The Smart Commute initiative aims to encourage commuters to get to work by means other than alone in their cars.

About the initiative

The Smart Commute program provides tools and resources to support and incentivize cycling, walking, carpooling, public transit, and alternative working arrangements (e.g., remote work), benefiting both the Town of Oakville and workplaces in the town.

The program can support employers in reducing parking demand at their worksites, promote options for employees to lower their commuting costs, and much more! These advantages can significantly enhance the ability of workplaces to attract and retain key talent.

We are working with pointA, a non-profit organization, to deliver the Smart Commute program for the Halton Municipalities.
