The ConnectingVA Ride Home Rewards program lets you use commuting options like carpool, vanpool, and transit with peace of mind and confidence.
At some point you may encounter an unexpected emergency while at work — a family emergency, a sick child at school, an elder parent who needs care, or an illness of your own. Or you might plan to leave at your regular time, only for your boss to ask you to stay late to finish an important assignment.
If these unexpected life events keep you from commuting home in a carpool, vanpool, or on the bus, you no longer need to worry about getting stranded at work. Ride Home Rewards will get you home — or back to your car at a park-and-ride lot — when something unexpected happens.
If you are a full- or part-time employee and you carpool, vanpool, or ride transit to work, then this program is for you.
Eligible commuters may use the program up to six times annually from their ConnectingVA account activation date.
A maximum of two trips may be used in any single month, subject to the program’s eligibility criteria.
Get home, or back to your car at a park-and-ride lot, when an emergency keeps you from your usual ride.
