‘Pool Rewards is a special incentive program available through Commuter Connections designed to encourage current drive alone commuters to start ridesharing in the Washington Metropolitan region.

 

‘Pool Rewards for Vanpools

If you drive alone to work and get at least seven people together (including yourself) who wish to form a new vanpool, you may qualify for a $200 monthly 'Pool Rewards subsidy for your new vanpool. Vans are available to accomodate between 7 and 15 passengers.

 

‘Pool Rewards for Carpools

Commuters who currently drive alone to work may be eligible for a cash payment through 'Pool Rewards when they start or join a new carpool! If eligible, each carpool member can earn $2 per day ($1 each way) for each day they carpool to work over a consecutive 90-day period. The maximum incentive for the 90-day trial period is $130. Carpools may consist of two or more people.
