Transportation
Welcome to the 快活林性息 Transportation Program!
Thank you for visiting our website. Our mission is to reduce the number of single-occupant vehicles commuting to the campus. The air quality and traffic congestion in the San Fernando Valley can improve if we each do our part.
If your schedule and route allow you to use an alternative commute mode (i.e., carpool, vanpool, public transit, walk, or bicycle) any day of the week, we encourage you to do it. You will not only help yourself by reducing your exposure to car traffic and stress, but you will lower the cost of your commute and give the next generation cleaner air to breathe.
The Rideshare Program for Employees provides assistance and information for employees who want to commute to the campus using an alternate commute mode. 听The most popular choices of alternate commute modes include carpools, vanpools, and public transit. 听Also available are "people-powered" modes of transportation. 听Those are walking to work or using a bicycle to commute to the campus. 听
Please refer to the听听webpage for more information.
