Feasibility Study for a Downtown Transportation Alliance

completed

Closed

A Downtown Transportation Alliance (working title) in London would be modelled after a traditional Transportation Management Association (TMA) which is a formal organization of businesses, institutions, agencies and a local government dedicated to providing transportation solutions to meet the needs of its members (or geographic area). A key aspect of the Downtown Transportation Alliance will be raising awareness of the fundamental role the future Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) will play in moving Londoners and employees in and out of the core. The benefits of a Downtown Transportation Alliance TMA include but are not limited to: • pooling the resources of many employers, thereby increasing their impact (e.g., often reducing cost, increasing environmental benefit, providing certainty in commuter travel, encouraging positive transportation behaviours) • providing a way for businesses to help solve local transportation challenges for their employees • allowing public and private entities to work together • implementing programs to alleviate traffic congestion, improve air quality and reduce greenhouse gas generation
