Early Start program offered to commuters

Eastside commuters are being asked to do their part this summer to keep I-90 free of congestion.

The city of Bellevue’s Early Start program will offer drivers and bookkeepers in new King County Metro vanpool or vanshare groups starting by June 1 the opportunity to receive up to $300 in Mastercard Gift cards. Early Start groups must submit applications to Metro by May 8. Rider Participant Agreements must be submitted by May 29. New riders joining new or existing Metro groups to Downtown Bellevue by June 1 will be eligible for a $100 gift card.
