2 Study Background This study seeks to establish the relationship between employer-based TDM strategies and transportation system performance Study Objectives Develop a methodology for measuring the impacts of employer-based TDM programs on transportation system performance Communicate these impacts to traffic management and operations professionals 2

3 Study Hypothesis A wide scale adoption of employerbased strategies is likely to have a noticeable difference on the transportation system performance at the local, corridor and regional levels Study Methodology Simulate the impacts of the Washington State Commute Trip Reduction program affecting a segment of I- in Seattle Use selected traffic ops. performance measures to communicate impacts 6

29 Conclusions TDM has significant impact on the operation of the transportation network Small reductions in vehicle trips had significant impact on the performance of the transportation network Numbers are as important as methods of communicating them: traffic ops, decisionmakers, planners, TDM and transportation professionals can understand and talk the same language of numbers 7 Some Factors Affecting the Results The number of trips reduced by TDM programs depend on The level of TDM strategies applied at worksites The number of employers and employees participating in these TDM programs Dependable collection techniques for gathering employer and employee data The level of congestion on a roadway corridor 8 29

30 Transferability To assess potential TDM impacts on a roadway, the following framework is recommended: Estimate the number trips reduced by the TDM programs based on a regional transportation model data Distribute and assign the reduced trips using a regional transportation planning software package Calibrate a microsimulation model for the transportation network study area Communicate VTR in terms of overall traffic region 9 Future Research This research study sets a foundation for future research focus on: Regional, state, and national qualitative processes for assessing the impacts of TDM Cost/benefit analysis of TDM programs Impact of TDM programs on freeways, arterials, and surface streets The effects of combining different TDM strategies with appropriate ITS applications locally and regionally 6
