2024 Maximum Mode Shift Study
This study estimates the maximum amount of mode shift possible given existing transportation infrastructure, land use, and travel patterns. Unlike travel forecasting models, this project does not model changes to the transportation system, population size, or where people live, work, shop, and travel. By analyzing the current system, the project estimates the baseline potential for behavioral changes alone to reduce vehicle miles traveled and increase the share of trips made by walking, transit, or biking.
