SmartTrip Dalhousie

Dalhousie University has partnered with HRM’s SmartTrip program to inspire students, faculty, and staff to engage in alternative sustainable transportation decisions, which supports Dal’s overall goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 50% before 2020.

SmartTrip is a program created by Halifax Regional Municipality to enhance the mobility of their workforce. SmartTrip offers programs, tools, and education on commuting options. The goal is to ease traffic congestion by reducing single occupant vehicle trips during peak hours.
