To comply with local air quality regulations, UCR is required to conduct an annual commute survey and submit an employee commute reduction plan to the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). All employees (including student employees) are obligated to report on how they travelled to work the week of April 21-25, 2025.
The survey collects data on the number of people and vehicles coming to campus. It’s important for all employees to account for how they got to work during the survey week, even if they work remotely (telework) some of those days. For those that don’t work due to illness, vacation, etc., just select the appropriate drop-down box to account for the week. Please note that for each day of the week, you must select the time you normally start work even if it was a sick day or vacation day.
Employees that are required to take the survey will begin receiving emails with a link to the survey on Friday, April 25, 2025, and weekly thereafter until they complete the survey. The survey can also be accessed at https://parkingapps.ucr.edu/aqmd/.
Those who complete the survey by May 9th will be automatically entered into a drawing to win prizes!
Thank you in advance for helping us fulfill our commitment and accomplish our goal.
