Description:
In 2011 the CCRPC, in collaboration with CarShare VT, Chittenden Area TMA, Local Motion, and Green Mountain Transit, was awarded a Transportation, Community and System Preservation (TCSP) grant from the U.S. Department of Transportation to launch a Chittenden County Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Pilot Program, which features ready-to-implement TDM activities to meaningfully improve transportation system efficiency, reduce VMT, improve air quality, reduce traffic congestion, improve access to employment, and enhance the livability of our communities. The suite of complementary projects included creating two regional multimodal transit hubs, developing a regional walk/bike program, developing an employee transit pass pilot project, establishing a TDM circuit rider, launching a marketing program to change transportation behavior, and expanding the existing car-share service in Chittenden County.
