UMD SMART COMMUTE IS THE SUSTAINABLE TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND, COLLEGE PARK. 

Our goal is to provide the university community with options and incentives that encourage the use of sustainable transportation to reduce the number of single occupancy vehicles coming to and parking on campus.

Transit, carpool (rideshare), biking, e-scooters, walking, teleworking and Zipcar (carshare) are all sustainable modes of transportation. 

 

RETHINK YOUR RIDE, EARN REWARDS

Sign up for the Smart Commute digital platform to discover your sustainable transportation options in your area and earn rewards for your sustainable commute. The platform includes a trip planner that introduces users to local transit, bike routes and walking paths. It can also connect you with a carpool partner who's affiliated with the university. 

 
Taking sustainable commute trips can also be rewarding. By logging your commutes to campus through the platform and participating in Smart Commute challenges, you can earn points that are redeemable for prizes in the Smart Commute store.

  1. Log your trips on your Smart Commute Dashboard or set up automatic trip logging with the CommuteTrack App (Android, Apple)
  2. Earn points for each sustainable commute
  3. Click on "Incentives" to participate in challenges and points programs
