COMMUTE COST AND EMISSIONS CALCULATOR
Cost and Emissions Calculator Inputs

How much money do you spend commuting to work? How does your commute affect air quality? It may damage your wallet and the environment more than you realize.

The 511 Commute Calculator is personalized for you. Use it to estimate your commuting costs and vehicle CO2 emissions.

The calculator shows daily, monthly and yearly cost estimates. These estimates are based on your commute distance, the number of days you drive to work, your car’s MPG, how much you pay for gas, as well as your parking fees and bridge tolls. In the results, the Calculator also includes the average cost of maintenance and tires (based on AAA estimates).

Your impact to the environment, based on the characteristics of your commute, is shown for greenhouse gas emissions and other pollutants.

Use the calculator below to find out what it costs to drive alone. The results you receive are estimates. Your can reduce your commuting expenses by carpooling because there are more people to share the cost. The actual savings will depend on how you split the costs between your carpool partners.
