WTA had a full and meaningful year, strengthened by a community that continues to champion transportation options in Washington County. We connected with members and partners through events, committee work, and regional and community gatherings, all of which helped advance our shared goals. Here's a look back on some of the highlights from 2025.

A BIG thanks to the 969 participants and 335 employer and community networks from across the state who made this year’s Oregon Get There Challenge a big success! A combined total of 15,986 trips taken by transit, bike, foot, carpool, vanpool, and remote work were logged during the two-week challenge, reducing an impressive 111,7402 drive-alone miles and saving 48 tons of CO2 and $77,745 in fuel costs.

WTA is forming a new open discussion group called Commute Chats and we're inviting you to join! This group will meet virtually every other month and offer an open space for informal conversations about transportation options in Washington County. Potential topics include TriMet service changes, vanpool programs, challenges commuters face when using transportation options, and ways GetThereOregon can support commuters.

Metro invites your organization to consider applying for the Transportation Policy Alternatives Committee (TPAC) and is encouraging individuals engaging in topics related to transportation to apply. These topics include, but are not limited to, racial equity, climate, transportation safety, local business and economic development.

WTA looked at employee commute surveys conducted for our members before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic. During that time, commutes were upended and more people than ever before were working remotely. Now, many employers are calling their remote and hybrid workers back to the office. How have commutes changed, and what can we learn from employee feedback? View the report here , and stay tuned for updates as we collect and analyze more data!

GetHome is a Guaranteed Ride Home program. We'll cover up to $35.00 of your Uber or Lyft fare in the event you experience unforeseen circumstances like personal illness, family emergencies, or unexpected overtime, that makes completing your alternative commute difficult or impossible.
