Ms. Costa Sanders, City of Redwood City <br />December 2, 2016 <br />Page 3 <br />“Provide a safe, sustainable, integrated and efficient transportation <br />system to enhance California’s economy and livability” <br />Vehicle Trip Reduction <br /> <br />We encourage you to establish a Transportation Management Association (TMA) in partnership <br />with other developments in the area to pursue aggressive trip reduction targets with Lead Agency <br />monitoring and enforcement. In addition, the Transportation Demand Management (TDM) <br />elements described below include effective measures to promote smart mobility and reduce <br />regional VMT and should be implemented given the project’s Place Type as a school in a <br />suburban community: <br /> Project design to encourage walking, bicycling, and convenient transit access; <br /> Subsidize transit on a continuing basis; <br /> Designate carpool and clean-fuel parking spaces conveniently located to encourage <br />carpooling and clean-fuel vehicles; <br /> Lower parking ratios; <br /> Designated bicycle parking; <br /> Charging stations for electric vehicles; and <br /> Enhance the Redwood Shores Parkway & Shearwater Parkway (Stop ID: 362409) bus stop to <br />including benches and a bus shelter. <br /> <br />For additional TDM options, please refer to Chapter 8 of FHWA’s Integrating Demand <br />Management into the Transportation Planning Process: A Desk Reference, regarding TDM at <br />the local planning level. The reference is available online at: <br />http://www.ops.fhwa.dot.gov/publications/fhwahop12035/fhwahop12035.pdf. <br />For information about parking ratios, please see MTC’s report, Reforming Parking Policies to <br />Support Smart Growth, or visit the MTC parking webpage: <br />http://www.mtc.ca.gov/planning/smart_growth/parking. <br /> <br />Transportation Permit <br /> <br />Project work that requires movement of oversized or excessive load vehicles on State roadways <br />requires a Transportation Permit that is issued by Caltrans. To apply, a completed Transportation <br />Permit application with the determined specific route(s) for the shipper to follow from origin to <br />destination must be submitted to: <br />Caltrans Transportation Permits Office <br />1823 14th Street <br />Sacramento, CA 95811-7119. <br /> <br /> <br />7.A. - Page 168
