Advantages of Offering a Shuttle

Happier, more productive employees – Studies show that people who drive in traffic often arrive at work stressed and can suffer from health problems related to stress. Taking a shuttle equipped with WiFi that drops off at the door of their location allows commuters to relax and ease into their work day all while letting someone else do the driving. 

 

Invaluable advantage for recruitment and retention – Shuttles can provide a necessary connection to your location that enables access to the best talent. Shuttles can bridge the gap between public transportation hubs and make your location accessible for everyone. 

Demonstrates a commitment to less congested roadways – We all benefit when the air we breathe is cleaner and the roads we drive, walk and ride along are less congested. Shuttles take cars off the road and that results in less traffic.
