Every New Year is an opportunity for a fresh start, and changing the way you commute could lead to a happier and healther life. Switching from car to transit means letting someone else do the driving and giving yourself free time to do more. Adding walking or biking to your commute can support your fitness goals without more trips to the gym.
Not sure how to get started? If it has been a while, check out these helpful walking, biking, transit, ride sharing and active transportation resources. Or get some inspiration from these fine folks:
