Mason Square Commuting Opportunity: Sustain and Save
Mason Square (formerly the Arlington Campus) has partnered with Commute66 to help faculty and staff who currently pay tolls on I-66 take advantage of Sustain & Save. This program provides $100 per month to employees who switch their commute from driving and parking at Mason Square to using transit, carpooling, biking, or another sustainable option. Participating individuals must commute into the office at least eight days a month. For more information, visit the website.

2022 Transportation Survey Extended
The 2022 Transportation Survey has been extended through May 18. Please take a few minutes to share how you get to, from, and around campus. The survey takes about 10 minutes to complete. After completing the survey, you can opt-in to a raffle for 10 prize packages valued at $40 each. Ten participants will be randomly selected from those who opt-in.
As background to the survey, 30 percent of Mason’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are attributed to commuting. By participating in this survey you will help us understand and improve how Mason commutes and you will be providing key data to help in decision making.
