The report provides a suite of recommended strategies to reduce single-occupant vehicle traffic in the urban areas of Phoenix and Tucson, Arizona, which are presented as a travel demand management toolbox. The toolbox includes supporting research on how to deliver, monitor, and fund implementation of the strategies, and a framework for the development of performance measures to assess their effectiveness. The research effort included studies of travel behavior in Phoenix and Tucson, reviews of best-practice measures nationally, and those in use in Arizona today, and interviews with local and national TDM professionals.

Land Use and Traffic Congestion is an investigation into the links among land use, travel behavior, and traffic congestion. Researchers focused on four transportation corridors in the Phoenix area: three older neighborhoods with relatively mixed, higher density land use, and one suburban area with lower density but high traffic volumes. The analysis suggested that the higher density corridors exhibited less congestion due to the greater mix of uses, shorter trip lengths, more travel by transit and non-motorized modes, and the presence of a secondary street grid system.
