Commuter Challenge 2026

Back to Event List

Friday, May 1 to Sunday, May 31

The Commuter Challenge encourages community members to choose sustainable transportation (such as walking, biking, carpooling, vanpooling, and using public transit) for travel to and from work. Workplaces with the most co-workers using alternative transportation at least once during the challenge will win a catered lunch or pre-shift meal for their workplace and other prizes. 

Want your workplace to participate? Show your interest by completing this interest form. 

Workplaces with addresses in the City of Ann Arbor, City of Ypsilanti, or Ypsilanti Township are eligible for the workplace prize. Only commute trips (trips to work, trips from work and telework) count for the Commuter Challenge. More information about the 2026 Commuter Challenge will be available in April. 

In the meantime, log commute trips on win.getDowntown.org!
