We will also hear from our own Boulder Chamber Transportation Connections, Boulder’s Transportation Management Organization (TMO), about the extension of the Alternative Transportation State Tax Credit through HB24-1036, as well as hopes for the future legislation during the interim of 2024.

We encourage our members to participate in this roundtable and to learn about options for employers to provide sustainable transportation for their employees.
