This project will explore possible improvements to the UC Davis Induced Travel Calculator and develop recommendations for any further improvements that would require additional resources.
This project will complete a minimum of three case studies of local communities that have experienced substantial changes in the transportation system and/or land development patterns to assess the change in VMT that has resulted; the forces contributing to transportation and land use changes, including local and/or regional policy changes, will also be examined.
This project will assess the current state-of-the-practice with respect to vehicle-miles-traveled estimation and mitigation by examining a sample of environmental documents for recent development projects.
This study addresses how much e-commerce will grow, if the growth will be consistent across locations and demographics, and what the impacts on the transportation system will be. In doing so, the study will develop a tool to estimate VMT and emissions from varying e-commerce scenarios using transportation demand models.
The researchers use a survey of homeowners in Sacramento, California, to investigate the supply and sufficiency of residential parking for single-family homes, including how households actually use their garages, and help answer the ADU parking conundrum.
This white paper focuses on the relationship between land use policies and driving patterns. It recommends strategies for enhancing local land use performance in reducing vehicle trips and increasing non-auto use.
