Employees:

Waterfront Partnership of Baltimore can help you by:

  • De-mystifying the Metro-Subway, light rail, bus, and water taxi services.
  • Making available useful maps (walking and biking, alternate driving routes).
  • Providing information on vanpools, ride-sharing, or accessing other commuting options.
  • Providing updated information on travel alternatives including the new Charm City Circulator (to be launched in fall 2009) and water taxi commuter service.
  • Answering questions about commute options, parking, transit and how to save on commuting costs.

When your employer participates in the Commuter Choice Maryland program you are able to ride transit for less than full fare! In addition, you'll save money by not driving and parking each day. Your employer can choose to offer pre-tax transit benefits through a monthly pass or voucher system. Visit and ask your employer to participate.

Maryland Commuter Choice Program:

This is a commuter benefits program to encourage Maryland employees who drive to work to switch to transit or vanpools. Employers who offer this benefit to their employees are rewarded with special state tax credits, and savings on certain federal and state payroll taxes. Employees benefit by being able to pay for their transit passes with pre-tax dollars. Call 410.767.8755 or visit.
