Greater Tucson Area's
Best Workplaces for CommutersSM

Best Worksplaces for Commuters Tucson logo

More than 10 percent of commuters in the Greater Tucson Area work at employers on the list of Best Workplaces for Commuters—a higher percentage than any other metro region in the United States. Working together, each of the outstanding employers on the list goes a long way towards reducing traffic congestion and keeping the air clean, helping Tucson remain one of the region's most popular locales.

On May 19, Pima Association of Governments and a host of other local organizations announced the 2004 list of the Greater Tucson Area's Best Workplaces for Commuters at a special awards ceremony. Held at the University of Arizona's Student Union Ballroom, this special event was moderated by Josh Pastner, Assistant Coach of the University of Arizona's Men's Basketball team, and featured a presentation by JoAnn Cotomo, a prominent motivational speaker.
