We talk about going green, but what if you could go green while saving some green? Have you ever thought about taking the bus to work? Watch a first-hand account of how convenient and easy it is<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Multiple days during the workweek, you can find Carla Snyder, program coordinator, Office of Health Professions Education, and Bobbi Shook, parking attendant, UNMC, on the 92 Express bus that travels from West Omaha to downtown. It’s a convenient option, as both live in towns west of Omaha. <\/p>\n

Snyder and Shook park at Village Pointe, where the bus picks up them and other passengers and heads east. A few blocks east, LaTisha Rankin, occupational therapist, joins Snyder and Shook by getting on at another bus stop along Dodge Street. <\/p>\n

The three have become better acquainted with each other over the months of starting to take the bus to work. In between conversation on the bus, they’ll read a book, catch up on emails, play a game on their phones or just enjoy some quiet time before their workday begins.<\/p>\n

If you have ever been curious about riding the bus, there’s nothing to lose and more to gain. Learn more about the benefits of TravelSmart busing<\/a>, including how to get a free bus pass to utilize the service.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
