The report summarizes the results of a research study to investigate the effectiveness of Travel Demand Management (TDM) programs. The investigation consisted of the evaluation of a number of existing TDM programs located throughout the United States. The study directly measured the quantitative impact of the TDM programs on reducing low-occupancy vehicle trips. The approach was to evaluate each program as a separate case study, using the same set of evaluation tools and guidelines. Vehicle volumes and mode choice evaluations of the programs were prepared whenever data was available. Comparisons were made and inferences drawn between sites that do have a TDM program and those sites that do not. The report presents these case studies as well as overall conclusions on the impact that TDM has on reducing the number of low-occupancy vehicle trips.
