Commuter Connections invites metropolitan Washington to participate in this meaningful event on Friday, September 22, 2023. Embark on your eco-conscious journey by choosing to walk, bike, carpool, take public transportation, or work from home and be part of helping our streets become cleaner and greener community spaces. 

Car Free Day is more than just a one-day event; it's a catalyst for change, urging residents and commuters to rethink their transportation habits and prioritize more sustainable travel options. As we collectively reduce our reliance on automobiles, we pave the way for a healthier and more livable environment.
