NIH Bicycle Subsidy Program:
In order to reduce vehicle traffic congestion and air pollution, the NIH Office of Research Services (ORS), Division of Amenities and Transportation Services (DATS), has implemented a Bicycle Subsidy Program.
Employees who are deemed eligible to participate in the program can receive a $20- per-month subsidy for bicycling to work, provided they do not receive any other form of transportation subsidy (i.e. parking or transit).
