This study examines the use of telecommuting on a national and state level. It reviews the issues commonly associated with telecommuting and the approaches employed to address these. The potential benefits of telecommuting for employers, employees, and the transportation system are outlined. Telecommuting programs in Houstin, Dallas and Austin are summarized. Preliminary sketch planning tools are presented for assessing the potential for telecommuting in major Texas cities and for analyzing the impacts on the transportation system. The case studies and work activities for the second phase of the study are also presented.
Travel Demand Management (TDM) describes a wide range of actions that are geared toward improving the efficiency of travel demand. There is much controversy and speculation as to the strength, role, and validity of TDM solutions. This uncertainty has probably led to misunderstandings of the role and potential of TDM, and therefore, a lower yield from TDM approaches than appears to be possible. This report is the main product of a study that was sponsored by the Federal Highway Administration to try to set the facts straight and provide the most comprehensive, accurate, and useable guidance on TDM. The report provides a set of materials, statistics, guides and tools that should be of significant value in not only increasing the basic understanding of what TDM is, but on how to design and evaluate programs which will deliver the optimal that these strategies can offer.
This manual suggests a process for TDM development and implementation, and offers guidance on the selection of effective TDM strategies. It provides an overview of the "big picture" of TDM planning, then guides you in identifying what strategies make sense for you, and in determining how much of those strategies you need to achieve a desired or required trip reduction.
Describes the nature of telecommuting and estimates its near-term future prospects and its implication for transportation and related areas. Gives projection of the growth of telecommunting to the year 2002.
