Moving from treating all forms of transportation as equal to "clean commuting"
which is being promoted by "transportation management associations" in the City of Toronto has introduced such a plan according to the article "A cleaner way to work: City launches clean commute plan" from the Toronto Star. This is an extension of the point of reducing single occupancy vehicle trips that is the heart of the Arlington County Master Transportation Plan.
(TMAs are what I call "transportation management districts" in various writings. Arlington is basically a big TMA. There is one for the Potomac Yards development in Alexandria. And Montgomery County has TMDs in four places in the County including Silver Spring and Friendship Heights--the latter has a little bit of cross-border [DC and Maryland] cooperation.)
The Toronto Star has three maps of commuter behavior statistics for the City of Toronto. If you click on the various districts, you can get pie chart statistics on the travel behavior for that particular area.
