• Abstract:
  Travel demand management (TDM) is not one action, but rather a set of actions or strategies, the goal of which is to encourage travelers to use alternatives to driving alone, especially at the most congested times of the day. In recent years, worksite TDM has become increasingly accepted as a tool to reduce peak period traffic congestion and air pollution, and help solve transportation-related problems at individual worksites. Recognizing its potential benefits, a growing number of businesses are embracing TDM programs. Further, in response to federal and state legislation, many states and local areas are encouraging or requiring employers to implement TDM programs at their worksites. This manual suggests a process for TDM development and implementation, and offers guidance on the selection of effective TDM strategies.
