Could you "ditch your car?" It may seem impossible to live car-free in Central Florida. But Lyft has issued a challenge to Orlando residents to " Ditch Your Car." We're eager to hear how it goes and whether the $600 in transportation credits is enough to encourage the participants to live a car-lite lifestyle. We've issued a similar challenge in downtown Orlando, with our 2018 Go DTO: Downtown Orlando Commute Challenge. Each month, we have focused our efforts on one commute option, whether it's telecommuting, riding SunRail or sharing the ride to work. October is the kick-off of our #Walk2Work initiative, with an invitation for people to make a pledge to walk to work on Thursday, October 18, 2018. If you're interested in trying something new - but you don't live in Orlando - then Mobility Week is for you! Across the state of Florida, transportation agencies and partners will be celebrating all types of multimodal transportation options from October 27 to November 2, 2018. You can even host your own event and be a part of the campaign.
