Transportation Options

Moving You in Our Community

When you walk, bike, roll, carpool, vanpool, or take the bus to campus you are helping reduce traffic congestion and parking demand locally. You're setting an example for others, reducing climate impacts, and making a healthy choice. 

To earn rewards, complete these two steps:

1. Create an account and join the OSU-Cascades network at Get There (with your .edu email address).
2. Log your COMMUTE trips online or download the CommuteTracker App from Ride Amigos in the App Store or Google Play. Only your commute trips to/from campus qualify for rewards.

Many students are familiar with Mt. Bachelor's "Ride in 5" program that helps people learn to ski/snowboard. Likewise, we encourage our students and employees to try commuting by bike or bus over three terms, increasing each term. Email us at Transportation Services to enroll today, or follow the steps below and our transportation concierge will reach out to you.
