Denver has a commuting issue, in 2022 an annual study ranked the Denver area as the 17th worst for traffic impact among U.S. Metropolitan regions. Unfortunately this isn’t a problem that is going to go away, with traffic and congestion only on an upward trajectory.
So what options are there for stressed commuters?
Commuting is not a ‘one size fits all’ solution so your employees need options whether that be walking, biking, skateboarding, scooting, carpooling, shuttles, buses, trains, on-demand transit, rollerblading or light-rail.
The good news is, if you pay taxes in the state of Colorado, the government has a scheme offering a 50% tax credit for any investment you make into your employee's commute. So there is even more incentive to help make your employees’ commute easier.
At Liftango we can help make it even easier; whether you have parking constraints, are trying to reduce your Scope 3 emissions, build a better culture, or just make life better for your employees, we have options to help.
We can onboard your team to a commuting program, design commuting options specifically for each employee, provide integrated mobility platforms for different options, deploy incentive programs to encourage usage, and even track your spend, plus fill out the relevant tax forms for you.
However, the tax credit is only for tax years 2023 and 2024. So the sooner you start, the more you save.
If you are interested to find out more about how Liftango can get you set up to make the most of this tax credit while it lasts, please do get in touch.
