INTERCEPTING DOWNTOWN-BOUND TRAFFIC

This report explores various techniques for intercepting traffic headed for the downtown area, and thereby reducing traffic congestion and improving transit service efficiency. Intercept facilities may include bus stops, park-and-ride lots, transit center, subway or light rail terminals, or multimodal terminals outside the downtown if proper complementary actions are taken. The report sketches some of the issues involved in implementing an intercept strategy, and includes an extensive contact section sescribing what many cities have done relating to this topic. This overview report should be especially useful to transportation policy officials and their staffs.
