Using Translation

The County of San Mateo has added a translation feature developed by Google Translate to assist web visitors in understanding information on this website in a variety of foreign languages. Please be aware that Google Translate, a free third party service which the County does not control, provides automated computer translations that may not give you an exact translation. The County cannot guarantee the accuracy of translations through Google Translate so translations should not be considered exact and only used as a rough guide. Anyone relying on information obtained from Google Translate does so at his or her own risk. The County disclaims and will not accept any liability for damages or losses of any kind caused by the use of the Google Translate feature.

Transportation

Transportation emissions stem from the use of gasoline in employee commutes (41.8%) and the County’s vehicle fleet (12.7%). Transitioning away from gasoline in transportation will require the adoption of zero-emissions vehicles across the County’s fleet of vehicles and forward-thinking initiatives to envision the future of work for County employees. Presented below are the climate objectives and actions that are designed to reduce emissions from employee commute and the County’s vehicle fleet. 

Goals:

  • 2030: 80% reduction in employee commute emissions
  • 2030: 100% of County motor pool vehicles are electric and 80% of all County light to mid-sized vehicles are electric
  • 2035: 95% reduction in employee commute emissions
  • 2035: 100% of all County light-to-mid duty vehicles are electric

Summary of Strategies:

See Focus Area 2: Transportation in the Government Operations Climate Action Plan (PDF) for more details on objectives and actions.
