Benefits of Partnership

Save Time & Money

Reduce parking infrastructure and maintenance costs
  • Reducing parking demand and spaces saves businesses money in winter maintenance, administration, enforcement, repair and new stall construction.
  • Reducing campus car traffic enabled York University to avoid building new parking facilities at a cost savings of up to $80 million.

Improve employee retention, recruitment and morale
  • Reduce employees' commute times, costs and stress.
  • Promote healthy lifestyle choices.
  • Recruiting and training one new staff can cost between 50% to 150% of his or her annual salary. A trip reduction program that helps retain one or two employees will pay for itself.

Increase Profits
  • Increase property value and land productivity.
  • Traffic congestion results in lost employee time.
  • Increase workforce punctuality and productivity.
  • Ensure just-in-time delivery.
