Commuter Benefits

Reduce the cost of the commute

Boston Children’s offers commuter benefits to help reduce the cost of getting to and from work. You can set aside pre-tax dollars to pay for eligible public transportation, parking, and vanpool expenses—saving money while making your commute more affordable.

These benefits include:

  • Day, evening, overnight, and weekend parking (based on availability)
  • T-pass program and transit subsidy
  • Free shuttle service to and from parking lots and off-campus sites
  • Bicycle cage
  • Hubway discounts
  • Zipcar discounts

See the Boston Children’s Parking and Commuter Services Page for details. You can also contact the Parking and Commuter Services Office at 617-355-6251. The office is located at the Patient and Family Garage, 283 Longwood Avenue; office hours are 7 a.m.–4:30 p.m., Monday–Friday.

In addition, you can reach out to CommuteWorks, a service of MASCO and Boston Children’s that provides free information about alternatives for commuting to the Longwood Medical Area. This service informs employees of mass transit, ride-sharing, biking, and walking options and assists in starting car and van pools.
