The Watertown Transportation Management Association (WTMA) is a nonprofit public-private partnership dedicated to increasing mobility options, reducing traffic congestion, and improving air quality in the region. Employers, property owners, institutions, and stakeholders partner to advance sustainable transportation options—including public transit, shuttle service, biking, walking, carpooling, and vanpooling. Our work supports a more connected, accessible, and environmentally sustainable Watertown.

Green Commute Programs

Membership in the Watertown TMA connects your organization with coordinated transportation resources that support mobility to those who live, work, and visit

  • Shared transportation services such as carpooling, vanpooling, transit, and shuttles can save money and potentially reduce parking demand.

  • Targeted programs that make commuting easier, more predictable,
    and less stressful. 

  • Incentives and planning tools that make it easier to bike or walk to work. 

  • Data analysis tools help you understand
    travel patterns and the kinds of programs
    and incentives that will be most successful
    at your location.
