Sustainable Transportation

The Department of Campus Safety & Transportation and the Office of Sustainability actively work with members of the campus community to implement effective transportation programs to reduce single-occupancy vehicle traffic, enhance the campus sustainability efforts, and improve the commuter parking experience on campus. We encourage you to consider alternative modes of transportation to work/school as often as possible to help SMC with its goal of lowering our campus carbon footprint and single-occupancy vehicles (SOVs) coming onto campus.
