GoMassCommute
In early 2025, 128 Business Council participated in a competitive, statewide procurement process coordinated by MassCommute, the coalition of Massachusetts’ nonprofit Transportation Management Associations (TMAs).1 After an in-depth review process, GoMassCommute was selected to serve as the new ridematching and commuter engagement platform for the entire MassCommute network, including our 128BC community.
Today, GoMassCommute is available to employees of participating 128BC member organizations. This free, mobile-friendly platform makes it easy to explore your commuting options, plan trips, and earn rewards for choosing alternatives to driving alone.
Whether you ride The Grid, bike to work, walk, carpool, vanpool, use public transit, or telecommute, GoMassCommute is designed to support the way you commute. Log your trips, discover new travel options, connect with commuter resources, and earn points toward monthly raffles and special giveaways.
