Transport Demand Management
Transport Demand Management (TDM) involves strategies to influence and optimize how people use transportation to reduce congestion, pollution, and costs. It encourages alternatives like public transit, carpooling, walking, or biking, rather than everyone driving alone. TDM aims to shift travel times or modes to less busy periods or different routes, making transportation more efficient and environmentally friendly. Essentially, it’s about planning and implementing measures to manage the demand for road space and vehicles, ensuring smoother, safer, and more sustainable mobility for communities.
