Transportation demand management (TDM) strategies seek to influence travel behavior by mode (method of travel), time, location, and route selection. Providing travelers with their households travel patterns and with practical ways to improve their trip planning or eliminate trips can allow them to find new opportunities to choose transit, bicycling or walking over automobile travel. This research focuses on using innovative technology to pattern household travel behavior for the purposes of educating, promoting, and encouraging households to utilize alternatives to driving, in general, and to driving alone, in particular. This project is the second phase of a three-part study on the use of GPS-enabled cell phones to collect personal trip data, analyze it, and suggest alternative or more efficient travel choices that could save the traveler time and money. |
