FOREWORD
By Stephan A. Parker
Staff Officer
Transportation Research Board
TDM (transportation demand management or travel demand management) is a process
that can encompass a variety of measures intended to influence travel choices. TDM is used
to manage heavy traffic demand and parking requirements, and to enhance the effective-
ness of transit services. Employer and institutional TDM actions within the scope of this
chapter can be classified into four major categories: employer or institutional support
actions, provision of transportation "services," financial incentives or disincentives, and
alternative work arrangements.
In this report, new as well as synthesized research is presented. Using a collection of 82
cases as an analysis platform, the authors evaluate the relative importance of particular
categories of TDM strategies (e.g., support versus incentives), and even, to some degree,
of particular strategies (e.g., a transit subsidy versus an HOV parking discount), through
pair-wise comparisons from the sample.
TCRP Report 95: Chapter 19, Employer and Institutional TDM Strategies will be of inter-
est to transit, transportation, and land use planning practitioners; land developers, business
associations, employers, institutions, and employees; educators and researchers; and pro-
fessionals across a broad spectrum of transportation and planning agencies, MPOs, and
local, state, and federal government agencies.
The overarching objective of the Traveler Response to Transportation System Changes
Handbook is to equip members of the transportation profession with a comprehensive,
readily accessible, interpretive documentation of results and experience obtained across the
United States and elsewhere from (1) different types of transportation system changes and
policy actions and (2) alternative land use and site development design approaches. While
the focus is on contemporary observations and assessments of traveler responses as
expressed in travel demand changes, the presentation is seasoned with earlier experiences
and findings to identify trends or stability, and to fill information gaps that would other-
wise exist. Comprehensive referencing of additional reference materials is provided to facil-
itate and encourage in-depth exploration of topics of interest. Travel demand and related
impacts are expressed using such measures as usage of transportation facilities and services,
before-and-after market shares and percentage changes, and elasticity.
The findings in the Handbook are intended to aid--as a general guide--in preliminary
screening activities and quick turn-around assessments. The Handbook is not intended for
use as a substitute for regional or project-specific travel demand evaluations and model
applications, or other independent surveys and analyses.
The Second Edition of the handbook Traveler Response to Transportation System Changes was
published by USDOT in July 1981, and it has been a valuable tool for transportation profes-

sionals, providing documentation of results from different types of transportation actions.
This Third Edition of the Handbook covers 18 topic areas, including essentially all of the
nine topic areas in the 1981 edition, modified slightly in scope, plus nine new topic areas.
Each topic is published as a chapter of TCRP Report 95. To access the chapters, see the
project write-up on the TCRP website: http://www.trb.org/TRBNet/ProjectDisplay.asp?
ProjectID=1034.
A team led by Richard H. Pratt, Consultant, Inc. is responsible for the Traveler Response
to Transportation System Changes Handbook, Third Edition, through work conducted under
TCRP Projects B-12, B-12A, and B-12B.
REPORT ORGANIZATION
The Handbook, organized for simultaneous print and electronic chapter-by-chapter pub-
lication, treats each chapter essentially as a stand-alone document. Each chapter includes
text and self-contained references and sources on that topic. For example, the references
cited in the text of Chapter 6, "Demand Responsive/ADA," refer to the Reference List at the
end of that chapter. The Handbook user should, however, be conversant with the back-
ground and guidance provided in TCRP Report 95: Chapter 1, Introduction.
Upon completion of the Report 95 series, the final Chapter 1 publication will include a
CD-ROM of all 19 chapters. The complete outline of chapters is provided below.
