Elements of TDM
• Telework
• Carpools
• Vanpools
• Buses – subscription, ICC, shuttle
• MARC Train
• Metro Rail
• Light Rail
• Walk/Bike
Transportation Demand Management (TDM)
Situation: (peak period – 0700 to 0800 hours) Current gate lane capacity 360/hr: 2 lanes/gate X 5 gates X 360 vehicles = 3,600
Number of vehicles now arriving during peak period ~ 3,900 (300 vehicles over capacity)
No improvements of gates and roadways in near future for lack of funding
Llewellyn Gate was a multi-occupancy vehicle (MOV) gate on a trial basis – was re-evaluated – now one lane at Rockenbach is devoted to MOV traffic – two lanes will be open to all other traffic
Status:Current wait time at some gates ~ 5 to15 minutes
With growth and no TDM this time will only increase
Way Ahead:Implement TDM programs now
Carpool, Vanpool, Buses, MARC Train, Metro, Light Rail, Bicycles, walkCompressed work schedule, Flex schedule, TeleworkUse gate for inbound traffic only from 0600 to 0900
Identify new ways to reduce single occupancy vehicle (SOV) usage
