Vehicle Trip Reduction (VTR)

Vehicle Trip Reduction (VTR) involves strategies aimed at decreasing the number of individual car trips made, especially for commuting and errands. This approach encourages alternative transportation options such as carpools, public transit, biking, or remote work, which reduces traffic congestion, lowers greenhouse gas emissions, and improves air quality. Effective VTR initiatives often include incentives, infrastructure improvements, and awareness campaigns to motivate people to choose more sustainable travel options. Overall, VTR helps create healthier, more efficient communities by decreasing reliance on single-occupancy vehicles.
