Walking and biking are good options for local folks. Many streets have bike lanes, and the CalEPA office has a secure bike room. To use the bike room, contact transit\@calepa.ca.gov to have them add access to your building badge.

[Sacramento Regional Transit](https://www.sacrt.com/) provides information on public transport, including the light rail and bus schedules. Staff may purchase transit passes at discounted rates through Connect Card, and may receive a subsidy on public transit passes up to \$315 per month. See the [public transit](https://intranet.calepa.ca.gov/headquarters/services/transportation/transit/) web page on the Intranet for more information.
[Sacramento Regional Transit](https://www.sacrt.com/) (SacRT) provides information on public transport, including the light rail and bus schedules. Staff may purchase transit passes at discounted rates through a Connect Card and may receive a subsidy on public transit passes up to \$325 per month. See the [public transit](https://intranet.calepa.ca.gov/headquarters/services/transportation/transit/) web page on the Intranet for more information.

- The amount of subsidy you are eligible for depends on what bargaining unit you belong to. See this [CalHR web page](https://www.calhr.ca.gov/employees/Pages/mass-transit-and-vanpool-commute-program-frequently-asked-questions.aspx) for the most up-to-date numbers based on the current collective bargaining contract language.

- To claim your public transit subsidy, visit the CalEPA Employee Transit Office ([office hours](https://intranet.calepa.ca.gov/headquarters/services/transportation/transit/)) located on the first floor in the Visitor Services Center. The staff there will issue you a Connect Card that you will need to register on the SacRT [Connect Card](https://www.connecttransitcard.com/) website. Use the SacRT website to manage your card and load new funds, as needed. **Note:** You cannot use a personal (existing) Connect Card to access the subsidized funds. You will need to obtain a new card issued by the CalEPA Employee Transit Office.

If you commute by means other than a vehicle at least 60% of the time, you are eligible to sign up for the [Incidental Use Parking Program (IUPP)](https://intranet.calepa.ca.gov/headquarters/services/transportation/incidental/), which allows you to sign out passes for the City Hall parking garage 3 times per month.
