Mandatory program elements

CTR programs submitted by affected employers shall, at a minimum, include the following mandatory elements: 

Employee Transportation Coordinator (ETC): Affected employers must designate a transportation coordinator to administer the CTR program. The coordinator’s name, location, and work telephone number must be prominently displayed at each affected worksite. The coordinator oversees all elements of the employer’s CTR program and acts as liaison between the employer and the jurisdiction. 

Information distribution: Information about alternatives to drive-alone commuting must be provided to employees at least once a year. This should include, at a minimum, a summary of the employer’s program and the name and phone number of the transportation coordinator. Affected employers must also provide a summary of their program to all new employees at the time of hire.

Additional program elements: In addition to the mandatory program elements, most jurisdictions require CTR programs to contain at least one element designed to encourage employees to use alternative commute modes. Addtionally, you may be required to add new program elements to insure progress is made toward your worksite's CTR goals.To view the requirements for your jurisdiction, refer to to your jurisdiction's CTR ordinance.
