Transportation Management Program:

  • Reduce single-occupant vehicular (SOV) trips
  • Increase Average Vehicle Occupancy (AVO) ratios from 1.12 to 3.0 by 2030.
  • Increase transit mode share from 11.3% to approximately 30% by 2011.
  • Reduce parking supply and demand (1 parking space for every 3 employees

by 2011)

  • Identify strategies implemented with other local area agencies and
  • rganizations
  • Improve patient access and parking
  • Obtain reliable transportation and parking information and data.

Characteristics

  • Capital projects that are part of a comprehensive

transportation plan for the Bethesda-Chevy Chase area, which is coordinated with what is planned in adjacent area

  • Major roadways that provide good access for residents in

addition to accommodating longer distance travel.

  • Major roadways that have sufficient landscaping to preserve

community character

  • An improved transit system that discourages growth in the

use of single occupant vehicles

  • A safe and efficient network of bicycle and pedestrian

facilities that provides access to transit, employment, and homes.
