Employee Commute & Transportation Experience Survey

Thanks for taking a few minutes to tell us about your commute! Your answers help us decide what to do about parking, transit benefits, and hybrid schedules. This should take about 8 minutes.

Which mode of transportation do you use most often for your commute to work?

• Personal vehicle (drive alone)
• Carpool or rideshare
• Public transit (bus, train, subway)
• Bicycle
• Walking
• Motorcycle or scooter
• Work from home (no commute)

On a typical day you commute in, how many minutes does your one-way trip take?

How many days per week do you currently commute into the office?

• 0 days (fully remote)
• 1 day
• 2 days
• 3 days
• 4 days
• 5 days
• Varies week to week

How satisfied are you with your current commute overall?

Thinking about a typical month, how does your commute-related spending split across these categories? Percentages should add up to 100.

• Fuel or vehicle costs
• Parking fees
• Public transit fares
• Rideshare or taxi costs
• Vehicle maintenance & insurance
• Other commute costs

Which best describes your parking situation at or near the office?

• Free employer-provided parking
• Paid, employer-subsidized parking
• Paid parking (no subsidy)
• Street parking
• I don't drive to work
• Not applicable — I work remotely

For each commute benefit below, how would you describe your use of it?

Explore the respondent's actual commute experience in depth: what specifically drives their satisfaction or frustration (traffic, cost, reliability, safety), and how their in-office schedule has changed their commute cost or mode choice over time. If they flagged cost as a pain point, ask them to describe the specific tipping point where cost would change their behavior. If their commute mode changed recently, probe what triggered the switch and whether a benefit or policy change played a role.

How much did your commute factor into your decision to accept or stay in your current role?

If your employer changed one thing about commute support, which would most likely get you to use a lower-emission option (walking, biking, transit, carpooling) more often?

• Increased transit subsidy
• Secure bike storage or showers
• Flexible arrival/departure times
• Carpool matching program
• Better parking pricing or incentives
• Nothing would change my commute mode

• Sales/Marketing

That's everything — thank you! Your responses feed into a report the facilities and HR teams use to review parking, transit benefits, and hybrid schedule policy. Individual answers stay confidential.
