Bicycling & Walking

The ultimate green commute is as close as your own two feet.

Lessen your impact on the environment by riding a bike or walking instead of driving.

If you live near where you work, try biking or walking at least one day a week.

You'll

• Save money: Calculate how much!

• Reduce stress and improve your health

  Regular physical activity, such as walking or bicycling to work, helps reduce the risk of coronary heart disease, colon cancer, high blood pressure and diabetes. It also helps in controlling weight, relieving symptoms of depression, and developing healthy bones, muscles and joints.

• Create A Better World.

Walking and bicycling benefits the environment and helps create more livable communities.
 

If citizens renting bike lockers at Princeton Junction, Hamilton, and
Point Pleasant Stations ride their bikes three times a week for a year
instead of driving they save:

• 46,682 pounds of CO2 from being released
• 2,406 gallons of gasoline from being used
• 57,510 miles from being driven.

See how your green commute reduces your carbon footprint.
