[email protected] is a flexible commuting arrangement. Our goal is to make commuting into work both more affordable and with less environmental impact.
Every year, each commuter in the Commonwealth produces 62 pounds of carbon monoxide, 9 pounds of hydrocarbons, and 5 pounds of nitrogen oxides, according to the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP). Cars, trucks, and buses produce approximately 40 percent of all air pollutants. In an attempt to reduce pollution caused by motor vehicles, Simmons would like to encourage alternative commuting choices such as carpooling and park-share options.
In this arrangement, employees have two (2) flexible commuting options:
With either option, the garage will only recognized one parked car, per day. Each employee can use their own Simmons ID badge to gain access to the garage. Once the system registers entry with the employees id badge, another car cannot be parked, until the first car leaves.
