This research resulted in a Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) Impact spreadsheet tool, which lets users easily see impacts for any census tract, city, or region in California.
This report provides research findings from the second year of a two-year research project on patterns of local policymaking in California to support transit-oriented development (TOD), transit, and active transport.
Prior research has either solely focused on measures of land use efficiency to reduce VMT or focused on measures of gentrification and housing affordability. This research project aims to address this gap, through the evaluation of existing tools that aims to address both land use efficiency and equity to promote sustainability and equity of the built environment.
This project studies how local governments in California are adopting (or not adopting) land use policies that align with regional emissions reduction goals.
This report explores the what extent to which California local governments adopt local land use policy and development decisions that reflect metropolitan planning organization land use goals.
