Presentation Thursday October 8th: Transportation Demand Management (TDM) in Arlington County

Recently, Arlington County Commuter Services released their annual report for 2008, Making an Impact Report, so it is fortuitous, that the Northern Virginia chapter of the American Planning Association and Arlington County Commuter Services have organized a public presentation on transportation demand management planning and practice in the County.

Presenters

Mr. Tim Torma will disuss the recently adopted TDM element of the Master Transportation Plan and how it ties to the other elements and other transportation/land use decisions in Arlington and the region. Mr. Torma is a Senior Policy Analyst with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and a member of the Arlington County Transportation Commission.

Mr. Chris Hamilton, the Bureau Chief of Arlington County Commuter Services, will provide an overview of the organizational structure that helps to implement the TDM program in Arlington, and the successes the team has achieved.

Mr. John Durham, TDM Planner with Arlington County, will discuss implementation of the TDM program including how site plan conditions are envisioned, written and negotiated, as well as monitoring and enforcement of these conditions.

Mr. Calvin Abram, Parking Manager for the City of Alexandria and a former transportation site planner for Arlington County, will describe how TDM fits into the overall transportation plan for a project.
