Orange County will celebrate Dump the Pump Week from June 16 to 20. During this annual promotion, OCTA is encouraging residents to leave their cars home and try public transportation or ridesharing. Those that pledge online are eligible to win prizes including an iPad, gift cards, round-trip Metrolink tickets, and more.
With gas prices on the rise, it’s a great time to explore transportation alternatives. Contest participants can pledge to travel by bus, Metrolink train, bike, or by ridesharing (carpool or vanpool).
Dump the Pump Week highlights the benefits of reducing the number of cars on the road. With fewer cars, mobility improves while pollution and traffic congestion is reduced. Sharing a ride can help commuters save money and get to work more quickly with less stress.
