METROVan
Miss the rush and get $35 a month
METROVan is perfect for commuters who live or work in areas where bus
service is not convenient. Sharing a METROVan vanpool saves time, money
and stress. With vanpooling, you can:
- Lower car fuel and maintenance expenses.
- Lower personal auto insurance rates.
- Receive METRO's $35 monthly incentive (your monthly cost averages $2 - $4 per day after this incentive; some employers reduce your cost even further by offering extra monthly benefits).
- Experience peace of mind with METRO's Guaranteed Ride Home program.
- Save time with use of HOV lanes.
- Lower stress by letting someone else drive and read or relax on your way to work.
- Enjoy a reliable source of transportation to and from work.
And, environmentally speaking, vanpools reduce the number of vehicles on our roadways to alleviate congestion and reduce harmful emissions.Each qualified METROVan rider receives a monthly incentive of $35. And, your employers may offer an additional transportation benefit, reducing your commuting costs even further. In exchange for taking on the driving duties, many van drivers ride for free, with the monthly operating costs divided among the riders. To receive the incentive, ride the van a minimum of 12 times per month. Missed days due to illness, business trips, holidays and vacation time count toward
the 12-ride minimum.
