One of the many complimentary services we offer here at goDCgo are commuter surveys, in which we have the ability to poll your employees. This allows you, as their employer, to take a closer look at your organization's travel patterns to help you uncover the bigger picture of HOW your employees travel, WHERE they travel in from, and what their wish list is to improve their commute. As an open and anonymous forum, this is a great opportunity for your employees to speak out about their commutes and perhaps company perks and/or amenities that they wish were in place. These commuter surveys will also highlight their pain points, all of which can help you become a superstar employer by providing unique benefit packages for current and future employees that address these issues.

Today, Metrorail serves 91 stations and has 117 miles of track. Metrobus serves the nation's capital 24 hours a day, seven days a week with 1,500 buses. Metrorail and Metrobus serve a population of approximately 4 million within a 1,500-square mile jurisdiction. And now, it's time for some change. In early 2017, Metro's Board of Directors approved four major changes to the Metro system: a fare increase updated schedule altered hours of operation the renaming of two popular stations...
Here at goDCgo, we take bicycle safety seriously, and we want you to do the same! Luckily, the DC region has the Washington Area Bicycle Association (WABA) as a resource for all things bike – and they’re kind of the experts when it comes to bike safety. Over the past year, WABA has been bringing us monthly pointers about bike safety, which we've adopted as Capital Bikeshare's official Riding Tips. Here, we provide some additional detail and context for each riding tip to help you follow the rules of the road this Bike Month....
