NEW - Beyond Highways: TDM as an Engine for Economic Growth
|
|
When transportation systems prioritize cars over people, households pay more, businesses lose out, and entire communities fall behind. ACT's newest publication, Beyond Highways: TDM as an Engine for Economic Growth, evaluates this problem and makes the economic case for TDM.
This resource breaks down how TDM delivers measurable returns across every level of the economy - from reducing the $12,269 annual cost of vehicle ownership for individual households, to generating four dollars in economic benefit for every dollar invested in public transit. It spotlights real-world examples, including GoTriangle's GoPerks program in North Carolina, bike infrastructure investment in the Outer Banks, and transit's critical role in sustaining local businesses in rural Minnesota - demonstrating that smarter transportation investment pays off.
