  1. Agenda • Overview of the Alameda Point Transportation Demand Management Plan • Issues for discussion

  2. Plan Overview • Purpose • Structure • Process • Implementation

  3. Purpose • Establishes authority • Sets targets and objectives • Provides implementation guidance • Identifies a phasing schedule • Allows controlled flexibility • Establishes procedures • Stipulates rewards and/or penalties

  4. Purpose TDM is part of a regional transportation system…. • Behavioral modification strategies • Carpool, vanpool, transit incentives • Parking supply management / pricing • On-site amenities • Flexible work environment Transportation System Management Active Traffic & Demand Management Demand Management Alameda Point TDM Plan Lane choice Route choice Time of travel Mode of travel Destination choice • Operational strategies • Traveler information / ITS • HOV lanes • High Occupancy Toll (HOT) Regional TDM / TSM • Dynamic / adaptive control strategies • Transit priority systems • Dynamic lane control • Adaptive ramp metering • Active parking management / pricing

  5. Plan Structure Implementing Tools Partnerships

  6. Plan Process STEP 1: Start Off Right • Targets all travel, but focuses on: • Commute travel • Travel with high propensity for change • Most effective strategies STEP 2: Continuous Improvement • Self enforcing plan • Monitor • Analyze • Report • Refine • Implement

  7. Plan Content Major Parts of TDM Program • Goals / targets • Capital investment in public facilities • Site development standards • Trip reduction strategies / targeted “packages” • Parking management • Employer TDM Plans (approval and reporting) • Marketing and promotion • Monitoring / Plan refinement • Plan management and funding

  8. TDM Strategy Categories Design & Facility Strategies Employer / Owner Strategies Financial Incentives Marketingand Promotion Parking Management Operational Strategies Support Services Transit & Shuttle to BART

  9. Monitoring and Plan Refinement Tiered procedure: • Measure project-wide VTR (Vehicle Trip Reduction) • Employer and resident surveys • If failing to achieve objectives: • Failure analysis • Targeted monitoring • Improved plan for individual developments or tenants • Enforcement • Reward achievement / penalize failure • Self-enforcement

  10. Implementing the Plan Multiple levels of implementation: PASSIVE LEVELS: • Alameda Point zoning, development standards, street & site design, urban design • Conditions of Approval and Development Agreements ACTIVE LEVELS: • Phased development to buildout • Maturation • Redevelopment

  11. Phased Implementation • Development phases • Graduated performance objectives • Triggers and thresholds

  12. Example of Phased Implementation 20% 30% Rapid Transit + Parking Mgmt Shuttle Ferry Service 25% 4% 6% 10% Vehicle Trip Reduction Goal Graduated Trip reduction Goals Trigger Events or Thresholds Development Phases Time / Development Phasing

  13. Funding the Plan • Mandatory membership in TMA • Residential (via Homeowners Association) • Commercial • Shuttle service fee • Other potential funding sources: • Parking fees and fines • Transit agency funds certain services • Transit agency facilities lease • Grants and subsidies

  14. Alameda Point TDM Plan Issues for discussion

  15. Issues for Discussion • TDM performance objectives • Enforcing objectives • Parking management

  16. Establishing Goals and Measuring Effectiveness TDM performance objectives

  17. Performance Objectives Recommendation: • Reduction in vehicle trips projected in the Draft EIR • Meet or exceed General Plan goals: • 10% for residential • 30% for commercial

  18. Rewards, Penalties, Costs, Incentives Enforcing tdm objectives

  19. Enforcing TDM Objectives Conventional TDM Plans Limited to Commuter Travel Good Faith Effort Passive Services Managed by Employers No Monitoring Rely on Regional or State Services No Reporting

  20. Enforcing TDM Objectives Structured TDM Plan Measurable Results-Oriented Active Programs - Target Specific Travel Groups Managed by Transportation Management Association Monitored for Effectiveness Required in Perpetuity In-Lieu of Physical Mitigation

  21. Enforcing TDM Objectives Recommendation: Increasingly Robust Strategies • Require annual monitoring and reporting • Alameda Point as a whole • Sub-districts • Individual developments • Individual employers • Enforced through monetary penalties • Cost of implementing, monitoring & refining new strategies Increasing Cost to Monitor & Report

  22. TDM and Parking management

  23. Parking Management Adjustment of supply outside the normal processes of the private marketplace to achieve objectives • Influences: • Urban form • Land use accessibility • Property values • Economy of major centers • Rate of economic development • Travel decisions

  24. Parking Management Most effective combination of conditions and measures: • Combination #1: • High level of public transit • Restricted parking supply + parking fees • Moderate to high level of employer provided transportation services (e.g., shuttle to BART) • Combination #2: • High level of public transit • Restricted parking supply + parking fees • High level of employer support services Source: TCRP Report 95: Traveler Response to Transportation System Changes, Chapter 19: Employer and Institutional TDM Programs

  25. Parking Management Recommendation: • Implement parking management strategies: • Immediate: demonstrated effective practices in design and regulation • Mid to long term: strategically over time as development evolves and matures • Decision to implement new strategies or parking pricing balances trade-offs between influencing travel and economic development • Monitor, assess and calibrate new strategies to avoid unintended adverse effects
