"Transportation demand management or travel demand management (TDM) is the application of strategies and policies to increase the efficiency of transportation systems, that reduce travel demand, or to redistribute this demand in space or in time."
Strategies to manage transportation demand, including ridesharing, pricing policies, and telecommuting.
"In transport, as in any network, managing demand can be a cost-effective alternative to increasing capacity."
"A demand management approach to transport also has the potential to deliver better environmental outcomes, improved public health, stronger communities, and more prosperous cities."
"TDM techniques link with and support community movements for sustainable transport."
"The Association for Commuter Transportation defines TDM as the use of strategies to inform and encourage travelers to maximize the efficiency of a transportation system leading to improved mobility, reduced congestion, and lower vehicle emissions."
"The purpose of TDM strategies is to inform and encourage travelers to maximize the efficiency of a transportation system."
"TDM has the potential to deliver better environmental outcomes, improved public health, stronger communities, and more prosperous cities."
"TDM strategies aim to reduce congestion by maximizing the efficiency of a transportation system and informing travelers about alternative options."
"By promoting the efficiency of transportation systems, TDM techniques can help lower vehicle emissions."
"The focus of TDM is to improve mobility within a transportation system."
"TDM strategies consider the distribution of travel demand in space and time."
"The goal of TDM is to increase the efficiency of transportation systems."
"By reducing congestion and promoting sustainable modes of transport, TDM can lead to improved public health outcomes."
"TDM techniques link with and support community movements for sustainable transport."
"Through promoting sustainable transportation and more efficient systems, TDM can help build stronger communities."
"A demand management approach to transport also has the potential to deliver better environmental outcomes."
"TDM has the potential to contribute to more prosperous cities."
"The main aim of TDM techniques is to increase the efficiency of transportation systems."
"TDM aims to reduce travel demand or redistribute it in space or in time."
"Managing demand can be a cost-effective alternative to increasing capacity in transport networks."
