Abstract
Current statistics regarding mass transit reveal transportation problems that can be addressed through comprehensive transportation demand management (TDM). Central to TDM is a public transit pass incentive program known as Unlimited Access. The discount bus pass program is shown to be an effective way of dealing with traffic congestion, parking shortages, and broader transportation issues. This study evaluates current transportation practices and policies, specifically the costs and benefits of parking versus the application of Unlimited Access programs at American universities. Case studies from universities in Utah illustrate national transportation problems, and demonstrate the potential to increase transit ridership.
