Hi,
An employer may provide transportation benefits to their employees that are tax free up to a certain limit. Under the US Internal Revenue Code section 132(a), the qualified transportation benefits is one of the eight types of statutory employee benefits (also known as fringe benefits) that are excluded from gross income. The two types of qualified transportation benefits are transit passes and van pooling (up to $125/mo) and parking (up to $240/mo). Bike commuters can also be reimbursed for certain expenses (up to $20/mo)
For more details please refer to the link:
