The Get There Challenge is an annual challenge to encourage people who live or work in Oregon to drive alone less and use transportation options more. Transportation options include biking, walking, transit, carpooling, vanpooling, or working remotely.

The Get There Challenge, now in its 10th year, is hosted by the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) and its partners across the state. Learn more about ODOT’s partners here.

The 2022 Get There Challenge starts on the first Monday in October and lasts for 14 days (October 3 – 16).

Anyone who is 18 years of age or older and lives or works in Oregon is eligible to participate. Please note that primary sponsor contacts and employees of ODOT and its contractors are not eligible to win prizes.

Absolutely! You can join anytime during the 14 days of the Challenge.

Any trip that requires travel from one location to a second location using one of the following transportation options: Bike, Transit, Carpool, Vanpool, or Walk, or Remote Work.

Trips can include travel for any purpose (work or personal) during the 14-day Challenge. Trips can be logged on any of the 14 days of the challenge (not just weekdays).
