Joe Bevilaqua, President/CEO, Merrimack Valley Chamber of Commerce
"The Merrimack Valley TMA has played a key role as a small business providing outstanding service to its members and the community. In June 2010, I was proud to present the Small Business Recognition Award to the MVTMA. The Merrimack Valley TMA has always provided quality services and benefits to their members. The organization and the business leaders who financially support it are strong advocates for providing alternatives to driving alone. Their commitment helps enhance access to the upper Merrimack Valley, alleviate traffic congestion, and improve air quality in the Merrimack Valley Area."
Emma Kosciak, Sales Associate, Nexamp, Inc.
"Nexamp, Inc. is a leading clean energy design, installation, and management company that offers cost-effective services and solutions for our customers. Our company is a member/supporter of the Merrimack Valley TMA. The TMA and Nexamp share a common goal of supporting green energy initiatives and reducing carbon emissions. As we work to green our business practices, a growing number of our employees are alternatively commuting to/from work/home and have the TMA to thank for rolling out specific programs to help meet the transportation needs of our workers. Our employees and the company benefit from the TMA's commuter incentive programs."
Mr. Reginald "Buzz" Stapczynski, Town Manager, Town of Andover
"Andover is fortunate that the Merrimack Valley Transportation Management Association (TMA) offers valuable commuter programs to the residents, employees, and employers of Andover. These programs strengthen and expand the Town's work in encouraging people to walk, bike, carpool, take public transit, and use other commute alternatives. TMA staff has been instrumental in consulting and working with developers, businesses, and the Town to maximize opportunities for development while providing solutions, programs, and advocacy that reduce its negative aspects such as traffic congestion and environmental concerns."

Dennis DiZoglio, Executive Director, Merrimack Valley Planning Commission (MVPC)
"Public/private/nonprofit partnerships can be very challenging because of the differences in sector organizational values. MVPC has seen the Merrimack Valley TMA work very successfully across sectoral lines to bring together its members to advocate for and support ongoing economic development and enhanced transportation projects to benefit the Merrimack Valley Area."
Kevin Lemire, Managing Director, Putnam Investments "Putnam Investments is proud to be a member of the Merrimack Valley TMA. Our membership has provided Putnam with a valuable platform for collaboration with local businesses, an effective tool to support advocacy efforts for transportation-related and environmental concerns, and an excellent commuter benefits programs to support our employees."
Kathy Rogers, Community Relations Manager, Philips
Electronics
"The TMA has been an effective way for Phillips to help employees do their part in reducing air pollution by commuting by bike, carpool, or vanpool. Phillips has an enthusiastic workforce committed to assisting Phillips in becoming a "greener" company, which mirrors the mission and values of the TMA. The TMA is instrumental in promoting transportation contests / raffles and attending our on-site health & benefits fairs annually to promote alternative commuting and green initiatives for our employees. We have about 60 employees participating in the Bike to Work Week events every May, we have several carpools and a vanpool all designed and organized by the TMA for our employees. Resulting in less congestion, cleaner air, a healthier workforce, and fewer employees who drive alone to work." |
