Ride On Winter Rewards Program
Hey Park City! Ready to move more sustainably this winter? The Ride On Winter Rewards Program is back — and it’s better than ever!
From December 1 through March 31, walk, bike, carpool, or ride transit instead of driving alone, and log your trips at the link on our website. You’ll help cut congestion, keep our air clean, and earn rewards along the way.
This season we’ve got over $4,500 in prizes up for grabs. Last winter, Park City logged more than 350,000 miles without single-occupancy vehicles. Let’s top that number this season!
Join the Ride On movement today, and make Park City cleaner, greener, and more connected.
