Commuter Choice Decision Support System

 This software provides an interactive way to design a commuter choice program that meets the specific needs and characteristics of an employment site. Building upon traditional travel demand management (TDM) strategies, the software allows employers to take advantages of the full spectrum of commute options, including how commuters get to work (mode choice), when they travel (time choice), where they work (location choice), and which way they travel (route choice).

Cost: Free
To Access This Resource: The Commuter Choice Decision Support System software is available when ordering a hardcopy of the document Commuter Choice Primer: An Employer's Guide For Implementing Effective Commute Choice Programs.

Commuter Choice Primer: An Employer's Guide for Implementing Effective Commute Choice Programs (FHWA-OP-03-007) (2003)

 This document shows employers how to apply travel demand management (TDM) strategies to help alleviate transportation problems affecting the worksite, such as congestion, accessibility, parking, and mobility. Building upon traditional TDM strategies, the document introduces the broader concept of commuter choice, which includes the full spectrum of travel options: how commuters get to work (mode choice), when they travel (time choice), where they work (location choice), and which way they travel (route choice). The hardcopy also contains the Commuter Choice Decision Support System software on CD-ROM.
