Commuter Benefits Program

The Commuter Benefit Plan allows County employees to save money by using pre-tax dollars to pay for work-related commuting expenses such as bus/rail passes, transit vouchers, Metrolink passes, Transit Access Pass cards (TAP cards), vanpool fees, and parking, saving employees up to $1200 per year! The program makes participation simple as payments for transit and parking products are deducted directly from their paycheck.
