Transportation Demand Management (TDM)

Transportation Demand Management (TDM) refers to strategies designed to reduce the need for travel and promote alternatives to single-occupancy vehicle use. It aims to improve transportation efficiency and minimize traffic congestion, energy consumption, and environmental impact. TDM initiatives can include promoting public transit, carpooling, biking, walking, flexible work hours, and telecommuting. By managing how and when people travel, TDM helps create more sustainable communities, enhances mobility options, and increases overall quality of life.
