TELECOMMUTING IN THE UNITED STATES

Abstract

This article reports an extensive national telecomuting survey, and uses the results to compare the effectiveness of telecommuting with other travel demand management (TDM) measures. It is described how telecommuting may be taken into account as a traffic mitigation measure in traffic impact studies, as well as how metropolitan planning organizations should promote telecommuting as an effective short-term traffic mitigation measure. The article also considers how telecommuting may be taken into account in the longer term planning process. Telecommuting programs in the United States are reviewed, and the characteristics of existing telecommuting programs are tabulated.
