Executive Summary
Angelenos want mobility solutions that are good for the planet and create more enjoyable travel experiences. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, about 70 percent of all commute-based trips were made by people driving alone.1 With just two or three percent fewer cars on the road, congestion delays could be reduced by 10 to 15 percent.2 By switching a few drive alone trips to more sustainable ways of getting around we can improve the transportation user experience and reduce greenhouse gas emissions to create safer, healthier communities.
The Department of City Planning (DCP) and City of Los Angeles Department of Transportation (LADOT) have collaborated to develop a Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Program as a set of solutions to encourage more sustainable development and support growing transportation options for all Angelenos. The TDM Program incorporates sustainable transportation options into the design of new developments to provide more mobility choices to residents, employees, and visitors. As Los Angeles continues to grow, TDM will responsibly address transportation needs and increase the efficiency of our transportation system by encouraging sustainable modes of transportation through specific strategies integrated into new development. This program is a priority as indicated in the City’s policy and guidance documents including the Mobility Plan 2035, LA’s Green New Deal, and the LADOT Strategic Plan. The TDM Program addresses challenges Angelenos face today, like congestion, air quality, and difficulty in accessing jobs and services through solutions that are good for the environment and good for Angelenos for generations to come.
