Each December, we look back at what kept us busy during the year, from Commute Challenges to Transit Trainings and more. It's a great opportunity to reflect on our employer partnerships, celebrate the awesome commuters we've met, and start thinking BIG for the coming year.

Take a stroll down memory lane with us over on our Facebook page. If you're a fan of all that the reThink Your Commute program does - from forming vanpool groups to bike safety - we'd love you to hit "like" and follow us.

FDOT District 5 hosted the 2017 Mobility Week October 28 through November 3. As part of the week, we challenged you to "mix-it-up" and try something new.

More than 300 trips were logged, including 120 bike trips and 90 carpool trips. Congratulations to our grand prize winners, listed below:

The Association for Commuter Transportation (ACT) issued a statement regarding the tax reform bill and potential changes to the Commuter Tax Benefit.

Click here to read the full statement.

In short, the pre-tax commuter benefit is not changing. This means if your employer allows you to set aside your own money - before taxes - to pay for a transit pass or a vanpool, you will still be able to do so.

Employers who subsidize commuter expenses will likely not be able to write-off those expenses. This particularly affects employers who are currently paying for their employees' parking passes. If you've ever wondered if your company could save money by paying for your transit pass instead of your parking pass, 2018 is going to be the year to finally run those numbers.

The good thing is we can help. We love working with employers to develop a Commuter Tax Benefit Plan that works for everyone. Let us know when we can help.
