Click here to see a news video Curious About Carpooling To Save Money that features 2 Harvard carpoolers, and their comments on how the Harvard Carpool Program has helped them save time and money on their work commute.
Beginning September 1, 2009, carpooling will now be available for employees commuting 4 days per week to accommodate those employees who may work flex schedules, compressed work weeks or telecommute from home.
Two or more full-time Harvard employees who carpool to the Cambridge or Allston/Brighton campuses either four or five days a week are eligible for on-campus parking in unreserved garages and lots at a reduced rate of 50% for a 2 person carpool and 75% for a 3 or more person carpool. Twice per year, carpoolers will continue to be eligible for the Emergency Ride Home (ERH) Program and, with the exception of the primary permit holder, each carpooler with a registered vehicle will receive 4 temporary passes per month to allow participants to park separately when schedules vary.
Contact CommuteWorks at 617-632-2796 for carpooling information for the Longwood Medical Area.
