Commuter Services

We encourage the use of alternative transportation including biking, walking, carpooling and, where possible, teleworking.

We work with businesses, commuters, and residents in our member cities: Bloomington, Eden Prairie, Edina, Minnetonka, and Richfield.

Today we recognize Juneteenth, a day that commemorates freedom, resilience, and the ongoing pursuit of equity and opportunity for all.

At Commuter Services, we believe access matters. Whether it's reliable transportation, flexible work options, or resources that help people connect to jobs and opportunities, we're committed to helping create a more accessible and connected region for everyone.

As we reflect on the significance of Juneteenth, we celebrate the progress made and recognize the work that continues to build stronger, more equitable communities.

Happy Juneteenth.

🚆 METRO Green Line Extension is in testing phase

We’ve been getting a lot of questions about the METRO Green Line Extension Light Rail Transit project—and here’s the latest update.

While there isn’t an exact opening date yet, service is expected to begin in 2027, and the project is getting closer every day.

If you’ve seen trains moving along the tracks, that’s part of the current testing phase as crews prepare the line for service.

⛽️ Gas prices got you down? We can help.

Commuter Services offers simple, affordable ways to get where you need to go—without relying on driving alone.

🚗 Carpooling is a great option if you have a friend or coworker to ride with. You can split the cost of gas, reduce wear and tear on your vehicle, and even use the HOV lane. Don’t have a ride partner? We offer a free regional ride-matching system to help you find one.

🚌 Looking for affordable transit options? We can help you explore bus passes and programs that make riding transit more accessible.

💳 The Transit Assistance Program (TAP) offers reduced-fare rides ($1 per trip) for qualifying low- or fixed-income riders. Metropass is another option—offering unlimited rides for $83/month, with pre-tax payroll deductions through participating employers.

🚲 Interested in biking, walking, or combining commute options? We can help you get started there too.
