Tired of Traffic Congestion? Join the County of Monterey in Exploring Smarter, More Sustainable Transportation Options


Traffic congestion is more than just an inconvenience—it’s a daily stressor that affects our environment, our time, and our quality of life. But we can change this.

 

RSVP now and help improve mobility and expand shared, zero-emissions transportation options! 



It’s time to reimagine transportation in our community. The County of Monterey is hosting Mobility Forums on August 13 and 14 to discuss how to create more diverse, reliable, affordable, and sustainable shared transportation options to help reduce congestion, improve accessibility, and make commuting better for everyone.

 

Why this matters:


  • Accessibility for All: We need transportation options that work for everyone, no matter their background, location, or income level.
  • Affordable Choices: We can reduce car-dependence by identifying innovative, accessible, and affordable shared transportation solutions.
  • Non-polluting: Fewer cars on the road mean less pollution, cleaner air, and healthier Monterey County.

 


Mobility Forum Dates & Locations:


Wednesday, August 13, 2025

  • 11:00 am - 1:00 pm
  • Castroville Library, 11160 Speegle St.

Thursday, August 1,4 2025
