About Us

Go Mountain Commuting is all about moving people in Western North Carolina. We are a program of the Land of Sky Regional Council, which serves Buncombe, Haywood, Henderson, Madison, and Transylvania Counties.

Go Mountain's mission is to promote and support programs, initiatives, and events which build momentum and community around transportation choices that move people. It's not just about commuting, it's any trip that gets you from point A to point B!

The goal of Go Mountain is to mitigate traffic congestion by encouraging the use of transportation options that improve air quality. That includes walking, biking, carpooling, ridesharing, public transit, telework, and more!

One-third of Americans don't have a driver's license, according to the US Department of Transportation. Whether they're too old, too young, disabled, disadvantaged, or car-free by choice, that's a significant portion of the population. At Go Mountain, we know if we can change our mobility landscape to serve those people, we're serving all people.

What We Do

We connect people to multimodal commuter resources, and encourage modes of transportation that reduce traffic congestion and improve air quality.

Go Mountain works with employers, campuses, nonprofits, local governments, clubs, and individuals to connect people to transportation options and ensure that transportation is not a barrier to employment or education.

While much of our focus is on commuting, we also recognize that how people move has the potential to be a source of joy, and we take every opportunity to spread that!

We believe every mode of transportation and every trip taken is an opportunity to connect and build the future we want, and to make Western North Carolina a better place to live, work, and play.

Our premier programs are Strive Not to Drive (a regional week-long celebration of multimodal transportation in May each year), and the Commute Friendly WNC certification program for workplaces and campuses.
