Making Better Commute Choices in Memphis

How did you get to work today? For most Memphians, the answer is by car and without passengers. It’s what we do, but is it what’s best?

Studies show people who drive to work alone arrive more stressed and less ready for the day, while people who use commute options arrive less stressed and are more engaged.

Memphis Commute Options wants everyone to try other transportation choices at least once during May, which is the local Commute Challenge Month. Biking, walking, taking transit and sharing the ride all count, and there will be prizes! Visit the website for more details.
