Transportation Demand Management (TDM) – How Can it Work for You?
TDM or Transportation Demand Management is a fast-growing concept in the transportation world, and whether you have heard the term or not, it is a safe bet that you have heard of or used TDM services. TDM services focus on identifying alternates to single occupant vehicle use and helping people commute more efficiently.
According to RideAmigos, the leading cloud-based commuter management platform, TDM programs “provide information, incentives, resources, and support to people who want to make the best possible use of available transportation options. These alternatives include public transit, carpooling, vanpooling, ridesharing, walking, and cycling.”
There are many ways that TDM can work for you. Visit Cruz511.org to explore carpooling and rideshare options in Santa Cruz County, and for bike maps, pedestrian resources, and bus schedule and route information. Our Cruz511 Workplace Program assists employers with design and implementation of commute plans for their employees.
