Congratulations to the 2006 Diamond Award winners,
our regions' transportation leaders.

Twenty local organizations and four individuals demonstrated extraordinary commitment and leadership in making wise use of our existing transportation resources in King County last year. The 2006 Diamond Award winners kept our traffic moving by motivating their employees to ride or drive with someone else, take the bus, ride a bike, walk, telework, or compress their workweeks. The winners were announced June 14, 2007 at the Seattle Marriot Waterfront.

Click on the 2006 Diamond Award winners at right for a look at the smart, effective commuting programs of these King County employers. Meet some of our region's outstanding employee transportation coordinators and learn more about how worksite programs make a difference. Thank you also to this year's Pacesetters—for their outstanding commute trip reduction efforts.

Programs that reduce employee commute trips not only make our region a better place to live, but also make good business sense by providing:

  • Better ability to retain good employees
  • Reduced need for employee parking
  • Less employee stress
  • Faster delivery of goods and services
  • Savings on taxes
  • A mobile or virtual workforce in emergencies
  • Public recognition as a "good neighbor"

Through the efforts of the Diamond Award-winning organizations and individuals, we all benefit from fewer cars on our roads, a cleaner environment, and a compelling vision of what we can accomplish by working together. Find out how your organization can be a winner when it comes to employee commuting. Get ideas for implementing commuting programs at your worksite.
