摘要

This project is designed to aid in the planning, implementation, evaluation, andimprovements of a (TDM) agency of program. Through the use of examples, the TDM professional can review innovative programs and initiatives throughout the United States, and model activities after these exhibits. The equations and benchmarks cited by this publication are other effective tools which offer insights into the relative success of TDM plan components in various environments. This report also introduces many of the traditional and innovative commute alternatives and discusses the benefits, obstacles, and goals of these initiatives. Strategies including carpooling, vanpooling, telecommuting, tax incentives, guaranteed ride home programs, bicycle and pedestrian facilities, transit, telecommuting, alternative work hour programs, and intermodalism are discussed and evaluated in real-world scenarios.
