Transportation demand management (TDM) requirements for land development vary depending on the location and specific requirements of the community in which the development is located. However, some common TDM requirements for land development include:
1. Providing pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure: Land developers may be required to provide sidewalks, bike lanes, and other facilities that promote active transportation.
2. Offering shuttle services: Developers may be required to offer shuttle services that connect the development to nearby transit stations or other major employment centers.
3. Providing carpooling incentives: Developers may be required to offer incentives for residents to carpool, such as discounted parking rates, preferred parking, or access to priority carpool lanes.
4. Offering flexible work schedules: Developers may be required to encourage residents to work alternative schedules to reduce peak-hour traffic congestion.
5. Providing transit passes: Developers may be required to provide residents with transit passes as part of their lease or purchase agreement.
6. Offering telecommuting facilities: Developers may be required to provide residents with access to telecommuting facilities to reduce commute trips.
Overall, transportation demand management requirements for land development aim to reduce the number of single-occupancy vehicles on the road, improve access to alternative modes of transportation, and promote sustainable and efficient land use.
