Document Summary
Transportation system management (tsm: strategies to reduce congestion and to improve capacity and efficiency, reduce externalities. Management rather than construction: ex) hov (highest occupant vehicle) lane. Tsm somewhat equivalent to tdm (travel demand control) overlapping concept. To improve transportation system performance by reducing travel demand: bicycle policy, hov. Improve vehicle flow: intersection signalization, freeway ramp metering, one-way streets, off-street loading, transit-stop relocation, reversible lanes, traffic channelization. Hov: bus/carpool lanes and access ramps, bus preemption of traffic signals, toll policies. Promotion of non-auto or high-occupancy auto use: ride-sharing, human-powered travel modes, auto-restriction zones. Reduced peak-period travel: work rescheduling, congestion pricing, peak-period truck restrictions. Parking management: parking regulations, park and ride facilities. May 2008, 10 miles of hot lanes on washington sr 167. Free: bus, motorcycle and carpool (+2) dynamic tolling 50c - . Ensure developers to provide enough spaces to satisfy the peak demand for free parking. It requires enormous terminal capacity (several spaces per car)
