As gasoline prices go up and up, the next time you get upset when filling your tank, why not consider the public transportation alternative.
Try riding a local or express bus, commuter van, ferry, commuter rail or subway. In most cases, these transportation systems are funded with your tax dollars.
In many cases, your employer can offer transit checks which help subsidize a portion of the costs. Utilize your investments and reap the benefits.
Many employers now allow employees to telecommute and work from home. Others use alternative work schedules which afford staff the ability to avoid rush hour gridlock.
