Rideshare Week, MTS/NCTD Ride Free Day, Clean Air Day
UC San Diego is joining schools, employers and households across the region in celebrating Rideshare Week, Clean Air Day and MTS/NCTD Free Ride Day. Tritons who participate have a chance to minimize their commute impact and maximize their incentives throughout the first week of October.
Rideshare Week is October 3–9 From October 3 through October 9, pledge to “Rideshare for Clean Air” and carpool, vanpool and/or take transit during Rideshare Week. Pledging is a free and easy way to demonstrate your commitment to reducing your environmental impact.
When you log your Rideshare Week carpool or transit rides with Triton Commuter Club, you’ll earn double points and be entered in our special Rideshare Week prize pack, sponsored by The Bookstore.
Free Ride Day is Wednesday, October 5 If you’re not already riding with U-Pass or FaSt Pass, this is your chance to try transit for free. MTS and NCTD will be offering free rides across the system, including bus, trolley, SPRINTER and COASTER service.
Clean Air Day is Wednesday, October 5 UC San Diego is proud to be one of more than 400 organizations participating in California Clean Air Day on Wednesday, October 5. Take the pledge and then take action with one of our lower-impact commute options.
When you log your lower-impact commute on Clean Air Day with Triton Commuter Club, you’ll earn double points and be entered in our special Clean Air Day prize pack, sponsored by The Bookstore. Any commute trip by a mode other than a single-occupancy vehicle qualifies, so walk, bike, scoot, skate, carpool or take transit. Better yet, skip the trip! Remote work and learning counts too.
As part of our Clean Air Day celebration, we'll be offering a 50% discount at UC San Diego-operated EV charging stations! When you charge your vehicle at UC San Diego, you're using energy from 100% renewable sources and helping us earn outside funding to expand our charging network.
Lyft is providing users a $5 credit using code “SDRSW22” Wednesday, October 5 for those looking to travel via rideshare. Valid one time use per person and cannot be combined with any other Lyft offers.
