Campaign aims to ease U.S. 36 congestion

LOUISVILLE – The Curb Your Frustration campaign, set up by 36 Commuting Solutions, has attracted 100 people to join its cash-incentive activities – taking the bus, carpooling or vanpooling along U.S. Highway 36 between Boulder and Denver in order to ease congestion.

36 Commuting Solutions is a nonprofit organization that seeks to enhance the mobility of commuters along the U.S. 36 corridor.

“36 Commuting Solutions is thrilled to pilot this innovative Transportation Demand Management program during the remaining year and a half of the U.S. 36 Express Lanes Project,” said Audrey DeBarros, executive director of 36 Commuting Solutions, in a media statement. “We understand the burden of traveling in a crowded corridor and we’re eager to help solo drivers give transit, carpool and vanpool a try. Making changes like this even one day a week has a great impact on traffic congestion.”

Solar Operations and Maintenance for Commercial Properties

One key qualification to consider when selecting a solar partner to install your system is whether they have an Operations and Maintenance (O&M) or service department. Since solar is a long-term asset with an expected lifecycle of 30 plus years, ongoing O&M should be considered up front. A trusted O&M partner will maximize your system’s energy output and therefor the return on your investment.

In addition to helping reduce single-occupancy vehicle travel, the campaign also aims to educate commuters about the innovations coming to the corridor such as Bus Rapid Transit, new travel technology and the U.S. 36 Bikeway.

Solo drivers can participate in the campaign and get cash incentives by changing their commute. To do that, they can visit 36commutingsolutions.org and fill out a quick application.
