What:

The Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Partners-Forum convenes on a quarterly basis. TDM is the use of strategies to inform and encourage travelers to maximize the efficiency of our transportation systems leading to improved mobility, reduced congestion, and lower vehicle emissions. The Partners-Forum meets to discuss how individuals make their transportation decisions and what behaviors and infrastructure systems are in place that influence their decisions. Members of the Forum examine ways that methods like carpooling, using public transit, walking, biking, and ridesharing can make the region’s various transportation systems more efficient. These meetings seek to engage as many stakeholders as possible and often include a diverse group of individuals from various backgrounds and professions.

Additionally, the Partners-Forum is collaborative in nature, and attendees are encouraged to share their ideas and experiences. Whether a business is presenting on emerging technologies in the industry or a government entity is providing a policy update—the goal of this forum is to provide Southwestern Pennsylvania with the tools and information necessary to implement TDM strategies in a smart, sustainable way.

The Partners-Forum is open to the public, and individuals interested in discussing innovative and collaborative transportation issues are encouraged to attended.


This meeting will feature three sustainability-related presentations in honor of our partnership with Sustainable Pittsburgh on their Carbon Reduction Sprint.

To begin, Lucy Klug from the University of Pittsburgh’s Office of Mobility will update us on the University’s sustainable transportation initiatives. Next, Chris Cieslak from the Green Building Alliance will discuss developments to the 2030 District and other programming. Finally, Sustainable Pittsburgh’s Kelly Henderson will talk about the Carbon Reduction Sprint program and its transit-focused actions.
