## Resource

Lake Tahoe’s summer traffic crisis is hitting hard—with 15 million visitors a year clogging the roads. Enter Car-Free Tahoe, a bold new pilot by Keep Tahoe Blue, encouraging visitors and locals to ditch the car and explore via free buses, microtransit, shuttles, bikes, and e-scooters. Early adopters are already ditching gridlock for greener, smoother travel, and locals are cheering the move to protect Tahoe’s beauty. If successful in South Lake Tahoe, the plan could expand north—and prove that small travel shifts can make a big difference for the environment and your experience.
