RideShare for Employers
Our Pace Vanpool customers say it best.
"When I first started working in downtown, after three days of driving my personal vehicle, paying tolls and parking fees, buying fuel every couple of days, putting wear and tear on my car, I decided that maybe working downtown was not such a good idea. I then was informed of the Pace RideShare Program, took the vanpool test ride and was convinced that it was the best thing for commuting since sliced bread."

"Since 2008, I have been both a rider and a driver with the Pace Vanpool Program. I'm so grateful to have this option since I travel to the Loop from Valparaiso every day. My commute with Pace is much shorter than it would be on the South Shore Line or Dash. It is also less expensive. I highly recommend this option over any other."

"For over 10 years, I have been saving $300 - $400 each month on my ride to work. It has been such a great blessing for me and my family. Not only saving on gas, tolls, oil changes, regular maintenance and wear and tear on my car, but also being able to use the Pace van for personal use when I was a driver. The Pace Vanpool employees that have been assisting me are very friendly, helpful and always reachable. Please keep up the great work Pace. You all have made my life so much easier."
