Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) Reduction

Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) Reduction refers to efforts aimed at decreasing the total distance driven by vehicles within a specific area over a certain period. This can be achieved through various strategies, such as promoting public transportation, encouraging carpooling, increasing walkability, and supporting telecommuting. Reducing VMT can help lessen traffic congestion, lower greenhouse gas emissions, and improve air quality. By minimizing how far people travel by car, communities can enhance sustainability and create healthier living environments for residents.
