Way To Go Awards Honor Folks Who Don't Drive To Work Alone

SRTC made a good showing at today's Way to Go Awards, presented by the Spokane County Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) program.

One of our Transportation Advisory Committee members, Steve Tucker, was awarded an 'All Star Coach' award for his work encouraging his co-workers to find a way to get to work other than driving alone.

And not only did SRTC's Executive Director Kevin Wallace give the keynote address but we were also honored with a 'Pinnacle Award' (left) for our overall participation in, support for and contributions to the CTR program. While we are a very small office, nine of our eleven employees take part in the program- which is an 80% participation rate.

A big thanks to everyone who makes CTR, and these awards, happen every year. I know there's a huge effort that goes into it behind the scenes.
