Commute Another Way Week The Bicycle Coalition of Maine is a co-sponsor of this annual, statewide event that encourages alternatives to driving. Commute Another Way Week promotes carpools, vanpools, public transit (bus, ferry and rail), bicycling and walking as cost-effective, healthy and enjoyable alternatives to driving alone to work. Friday, May 16 has been designated as National Bike to Work Day. Why do it? Because healthy, economical and environmentally-friendly transportation choices means energy savings, improved health, less stress, higher morale and more money saved for commuters and employers. The Maine Turnpike Authority and MaineDOT underwrite the annual event. Additional sponsorship support comes from the Bicycle Coalition of Maine Maine, the Better Transportation Association, the Maine Transit Association, the Maine Department of Environmental Protection, Healthy Maine Walks and the Greater Portland Council of Governments.
