Stacy Bartels, DVRPC Manager, Marketing and Commuter Services
DVRPC has a long history of providing commuter benefit services in the Delaware Valley. As of last fall, the Commission rebranded and refreshed one of its most popular services, introducing RideECO (Easy Commute Options). The program allows employers and commuters to save money by putting pre-tax dollars toward fares on public transportation. In addition to a new website (www.RideECO.org), commuters have noticed a new logo and extensive advertisements throughout the Delaware Valley. Join us at this meeting to learn about all of the resources that DVRPC makes available to individuals and organizations to ease the hassles of commuting.
