Many communities are struggling to reduce traffic congestion and increase transportation accessibility. This modern transportation mitigation guide provides policy makers with urban planning and land use strategies to lower emissions, improve public health, and increase access to transportation in the communities they serve. Examples include improved walking, biking, and transit infrastructure, complementary land uses, subsidized transit or bikeshare services, and the implementation of monitored transportation demand management measures.
