Enroll in the Emergency Ride Home Program
The Emergency Ride Home (ERH) Program
is the Watertown TMA's Green Commuter Insurance Policy. Carpooling, vanpooling, biking, walking, or taking transit to work are all better for the environment than driving alone and help reduce traffic on roadways. But what happens when someone is at work without a car and needs to get home in an emergency? ERH participants can rest assured – they’ll never be left stranded.
