Commuting in the Hybrid World:
Travel Tips for a Flexible Schedule
| |
|
Downtown hybrid workers are going to the office 2-4 days a week, and often for just part of the day. New transportation options and tools are available for part-time commuting.
Minneapolis transit, carpooling, and contract parking services, which were built to serve the 9-5, Monday through Friday model, have adjusted their operations for today's workforce.
This webinar examines the changes, challenges, and advantages of serving hybrid commuters.
Learn how hybrid commutes can benefit health and wellness, ease and efficiency, and the bottom line. The end results are cost-savings, fewer vehicle miles traveled (VMT), less traffic congestion, and lower emissions.
Join us this Wednesday, December 13, Noon – 1 p.m. for this free webinar

Transportation Summit
Recording and Recap
The 2023 Move Minneapolis Transportation Summit was curated to equip attendees new to the transportation conversation with a toolkit of new frameworks to analyze their own transportation decisions.
Intentionally, this event explored streets as public space beyond a specific infrastructure project’s scope or budget.
Our goal was to create a blank canvas and equip attendees with the tools to lean into vulnerable questions about the public realm before they are faced with the question affecting their own back yard.

Metropolitan Council Governance Task Force Engagement
The Metropolitan Council is currently facing a restructuring at the behest of the state Legislature, where officials are considering ditching the governor-appointees model and adopting another option, such as an elected board or a council of governments. To determine the appropriate approach, the Metropolitan Governance Task Force will be hosting a number of public hearings across the Twin Cities to gather citizen input on the Met Council’s organization.
