Travel Demand Management considers both commute and non-commute travel as it affects major transportation corridors, activity/employment centers, new development, airports, freight movement, school, recreation, tourism, special events and other types of travel throughout the region.
TDM includes the RideShare Program and Travel Reduction Program. It also incorporates regional safety and operations, incident management, transportation technologies and community-related transportation enhancements. Advances in information technology may make managing demand more effective by providing real-time, accurate information on travel options, traffic conditions, alternative routes, and even dynamic matching of travelers into shared ride arrangements. |
