There is a new alternative for residents of the City of Fort Collins looking for an economical and environmentally friendly method to commute. In order to gently encourage commuters to sign up for the VanGo Vanpooling service, the City of Fort Collins, in partnership with Colorado State University (CSU) and The North Front Range Metropolitan Planning Organization (NFRMPO), has started an incentive program. In an effort to increase access to environmentally friendly transportation, new members are now eligible for a $100 monthly stipend for a maximum of six months.
With more than 20 routes and about 100 commuters heading from Northern Colorado to various front range and plains destinations, the service is well-known across the country. It was created to lessen environmental pollution and traffic congestion, and it is already helping up to 30 new users by somewhat easing the cost of transit. The City of Fort Collins says commuters may immediately sign up for this offer by creating an online profile and finding vanpools that fit their particular needs.
VanGo provides many benefits to both drivers and passengers, including shared driving duties, the freedom to work or relax during trips, and federal commuter tax incentives. Along with a guaranteed transport home and access to HOV lanes for groups of three or more riders, participants also receive professional fleet maintenance services, which significantly lessen the daily strain and wear on private automobiles. Benefits for employers also include having more attentive workers who are not burdened by the early traffic bottleneck and parking shortages that are alleviated when employees carpool.
VanGo offers part-time fare choices for employees with flexible schedules, and the monthly fare can vary from $98 to $362 based on the distance traveled. This program, which offers a simple way to cut greenhouse gas emissions associated with transportation, is an integral part of the City’s larger commitment to sustainability and climate change. Platforms like vangovanpools.org, which enable users to actively track their commutes, calculate savings, and evaluate the environmental advantages of their transportation choices, demonstrate the city’s ambitious goal to encourage eco-friendly commuting options.
