Gridlock To Green Trips
How can we create transportation options for workers and residents and address the housing shortage? What is Transportation Demand Management (TDM) and how can we implement it to reduce vehicle trips and lessen parking demand in our community?
Join Palo Alto Forward, the Palo Alto Transportation Management Association, and City of Mountain View staff on April 24 for our Gridlock to Green Trips event. We’ll discuss parking and traffic worries that are common barriers to addressing the housing shortage, and look towards local solutions. Together we'll myth-bust and think about how TDM measures can be implemented in our community, especially at new housing sites. Let's make transportation work for all of us!
** RSVP here (required).**
