ASPECTS OF TRAVEL DEMAND MANAGEMENT: SELECTIVE RESOURCES FOR THE ARRB RESEARCH STRATEGY WORKSHOP MAY 1990

As part of the systematic review of ARRB's research program initiated in 1989, work was undertaken to develop a strategy for ARRB research over a five year horizon on the subject of travel demand management. This subject had come to the fore due to funding constraints, heightened environmental and social concerns over the side effects of transport, growing congestion and greater public participation in transport and urban planning. The necessary involvement of all modes of land transport, of planning and land use authorities, and the need to ensure that scarce research manpower and resources were applied effectively required a systematic review of the appropriate issues and problems to address. As part of this task a national workshop was run at ARRB to identify the common ground between a diversity of interested parties on the objective and the issues that needed attention. A series of resource notes were produced to summarise the long history of approaches to travel demand management, to clarify and summarise current issues and experiments around the world, and to provide reference and summary material to support the workshop participants at various stages in the workshop. As a result of this workshop, this report has been produced to integrate, collate and extend a number of these briefing and resource notes to a broader and more balanced coverage of the area and the needs.
