Commuter Benefits Program for Bikes & other Micromobility

Daisy Gonzalez

20/04/2022 14:38

A commuter benefits program for city employees that can offer discounts for bikes rentals such as citi bike and other micro-mobility options such as escooters and ebikes. This incentive may encourage more biking and relying less on public transportation as well as reduce traffic congestion. The idea can later be expanded to the private sector with the goal of being more environmentally conscious in addition to motivating more people to stay healthy by being more active.

In favor

Considering NYC government employees get health insurance, the city should give its employees incentives to be active, like ride a bike to work, because they will remain healthier.

Why can't I use my commuter benefit card on CitiBikes?

Hi Davey,

I second that. The pandemic has caused me to have anxiety, so I don't take public transportation. I had to invest in a bicycle because CitiBikes don't take commuter cards. It is a hassle for me in the morning with my bike. Riding a citibike is easier for me.

The concept might be applied in the business world with the intention of becoming more ecologically conscious as well as inspiring more people to lead healthier lives through increased physical activity.bypremiertimes.

Which expenses are eligible for reimbursement is decided by your employer. A bike purchase drift boss is an example of a typical eligible expense.
