   SJCOG works hard to increase walking and biking options across our region. The ATP program consolidates various federal and state transportation programs into a single program with a focus on increaed use of active modes of transportation. It allows cities, the county, transit and other public agencies to compete for grants to build bicycle/pedestrian paths, install bike racks, and other programs/projects that make biking or walking easier, safer, and more convenient.

2. Dibs: Smart Travel. Your Way

   Dibs (formerly Commute Connection) is a program of SJCOG serving San Joaquin, Stanislaus, and Merced counties. It was established to promote and encourage smart travel through carpooling, vanpooling, riding transit, walking, & biking. The program's core focus is to reduce single occupant vehicle commutes, thus reducing congestion and improving air quality.
