San Francisco Bay Area's
Best Workplaces for Commuters^SM

On behalf of the Northern California Association for Commuter Transportation (ACT), the coordinator for the 2006 Bay Area's Best Workplaces for Commuters campaign, we were pleased to announce that the 5th annual Bay Area list included 179 employers plus four districts that offer outstanding commuter benefits to more than 317,000 employees.

ACT is an acknowledged Bay Area transportation leader, helping employers create customized solutions to employees' commuting challenges. In cooperation with a coalition of organizations, we invited several thousand Bay Area employers to apply for the 2006 Best Workplaces for Commuters designation. Our partners included organizations from both the public and private sectors, committed to identifying employers who meet the list criteria and are interested in providing viable options to commuters across the Bay Area.

We congratulate the Bay Area's Best Workplaces for Commuters for helping to reduce traffic congestion and auto emissions, while enhancing the region's quality of life. Thank you for supporting thie 2006 campaign.
