What does it mean to commute at the wrong peak?

Off-peak commuting, also known as off-peak commuting, is a measure to reduce traffic pressure and save energy by adjusting commuting time. Mainly aimed at the peak hours of commuting, employees are encouraged to commute by changing the traditional fixed commuting time to realize off-peak travel. This can effectively reduce traffic congestion, improve travel efficiency, and also reduce energy consumption and environmental pollution.

The main features of off-peak commuting include:

1. Flexible working hours: enterprises or institutions set working hours intervals according to actual conditions, allowing employees to freely choose working hours during this time period.

2. Incorrect commuting: Enterprises and institutions appropriately stagger the commuting time of employees to avoid the phenomenon that a large number of people travel together at the same time.

3. Transportation subsidies or preferential policies: Some enterprises and institutions may provide transportation subsidies or preferential policies, such as free shuttle buses and subway concessions, in order to encourage employees to commute during peak hours.

4. Teleworking: With the development of science and technology, telecommuting is becoming more and more popular. Through telecommuting, employees can finish their work at home or anywhere, further reducing the traffic pressure.

The off-peak commuting has been popularized and implemented in many countries and regions, especially in some big cities, such as Beijing, Shanghai and Tokyo, which has become one of the important measures to alleviate traffic pressure and protect the environment.
