Each year Montgomery County Commuter Services distributes the ANNUAL COMMUTER SURVEY to selected employers, to be completed by their employees, to help determine commuter driving and transit patterns.
Montgomery County Commuter Services also uses this confidential employee commute survey as a tool to obtain valuable information, which is then used for transportation planning and to improve transportation services in the County and Region.
By participating in the Annual Commuter Survey, you are helping to improve Montgomery County's quality of life and making it an even better place to live and work.
