The Get There Challenge is an annual, 15-day competition that helps Oregonians drive less and use transportation options more. For the first time ever, we’re changing up the Get There Challenge to encourage some friendly competition by making it team-based.

New this year, participants can join a community or worksite team OR they can create a team of up to 10 friends, neighbors, and/or coworkers.

Teams will compete to be a top team and win prizes by logging trips taken by bike, foot, carpool, vanpool, and transit and remote work days. Plus, participants can win bonus prizes by unlocking early bird achievements.

The Get There Challenge is hosted by the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) and its partners across the state, and has no costs for employers, organizations, or individuals to participate.

Running two-weeks from Oct. 1-15, Oregon’s Get There Challenge is a timely reason to drive less by using transportation options and working remotely for the chance to win prizes and get recognized. New this year, teams across Oregon will compete to be a top team and win prizes!

Participants can join an already existing community or worksite team, or they can create a team of up to 10 friends, neighbors, and/or coworkers.

Teams will compete by logging trips taken by bike, foot, carpool, vanpool, and transit and remote work days. Plus, participants can win bonus prizes by unlocking early bird achievements before the challenge starts.

Anyone age 18 or older who lives and/or works in Oregon can join or create a team to compete in the Get There Challenge, Oct. 1-15, by visiting GetThereOregon.org/Challenge.

Now in its 11th year, the Get There Challenge has helped to reduce traffic and emissions across the state, helping make Oregon a better place to live, work, and play. Last year, over 1,800 participants logged 46,000 transportation options trips and remote work days, totaling a reduction of more than 465,000 drive alone miles.

The Get There Challenge is sponsored by Cafe Yumm, River City Bicycles, Powell’s Books, Clever Cycles, Next Adventure, Ruffwear, Bob’s Red Mill, Transportation Options Group of Oregon, and Commute with Enterprise. The Challenge is powered by Get There Connect, a trip planning and ridematching tool. Get There is a program of the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT).
