This report examines the potential market demand for a “first” mile transit access service and possible reductions in vehicle miles traveled at both the regional and station level.
UC Davis researchers surveyed homeowners in Sacramento and collected lot size and other data to investigate whether the total effective parking supply of the average single-family detached home is sufficient to accommodate the vehicles associated with the residents of both a primary dwelling and a potential ADU.
This policy brief focuses on the changes in warehousing and distribution facility and employment location and uses measures of relative location to infer potential truck vehicle miles traveled impacts.
This project examines changes in the spatial pattern of warehousing and distribution (W&D) activities and how these changes may impact truck vehicle miles traveled.
This policy brief summarizes interviews with stakeholders from 38 agencies and organizations throughout California on how they view the possible impacts of ridehailing and the policies that might best address those impacts.
Researchers used a historical counterfactual approach to assess how replacing level of service with vehicle miles traveled could have affected the approval process for 153 land development projects over 16 years in the city of Los Angeles.
This project analyzes the switch from level-of-service (LOS) to vehicle miles traveled (VMT) as a measure of significant environmental impacts. The researchers study how both LOS and VMT relate to development, housing, land use, and emissions.
In this project, the research team will quantify the magnitude of micromobility service effects on vehicle miles of travel (VMT) through triangulation and synthesis of three primary travel behaviors: mode substitution, transit connection, and driving/ride-hailing behavior.
This white paper analyzes evidence on the economic benefits of placemaking efforts that prioritize pedestrian and non-motorized access and that, at times, reduce vehicle miles traveled. The researchers summarize evidence on how locally oriented placemaking efforts are associated with benefits that help boost local economies.
