Commuter Connections Calls for Employer Award Nominations

Attention, employers! Commuter Connections’ 25th Annual Employer Recognition Awards offer an opportunity to get well-deserved recognition for outstanding commuter and/or telework programs. Winners will be recognized at its prestigious awards ceremony, to be held in late June 2022 in Washington, D.C. Nominations are due by January 31, 2022. For more information and to apply, click here.

This is a big milestone for Commuter Connections — a program of the National Capital Region Transportation Planning Board at the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments — as it has held this Employer Recognition Awards Ceremony every year for a quarter century.

The awards recognize employers who have initiated programs that facilitate the use of commute modes such as bicycling, ridesharing through carpools and vanpools, and other alternatives to driving alone.

Award applications are evaluated by a selection committee, which chooses winners for their ability to offer measurable commuter benefits that reduce automobile fuel consumption and emissions through fewer vehicle trips and miles traveled. In addition, winners are selected for their policies that improved the lives of their employees and the region.

Past Employer Recognition Award winners located here in Bethesda include The Donohoe Companies, Cadmus Group, Inc., ASHP and United Educators.

Newsletter Schedule Changing

We’re moving up the schedule for the BTS newsletter this year. Rather than clicking “send” at the end of the month, we’re aiming to get you each month’s news near the start of the month. The next regular newsletter will be at the beginning of February. We hope you find the earlier timing helpful as you make your mobility choices each month.
