Percent Change 10% 2~/,~ 41~ - 52% 10.~A to the TPR require areas not meeting the VMT reduction target to seek approval from the Land and Development Commission (LCDC) for the use of alternative measures in demonstrating reduced reliance on the automobile. This process is discussed further in Part Three: TPR Alternate Perform~ce Measures of this chapter.. P31 6 and P~IT: Average Trip Length and Percentage of Person Trips Under I Mile Shorter trip distance is one factor that contributes to making the use of alternative modes more attractive. As presented in Table 6, trip length reflects the average distance for trips taken within the region by all modes and does not include trips made through the region. The objective is to reduce average trip length. Percentage of person trips under 1 mile provides a measure of the plan's specific impact on short trips. The objective here is to increase the pementage of trips under i mile. Average trip length is projected to decrease slightly from 3.7 m/les to 3.6 miles under the Financially Constrained Trans?lam As discttssed render PM 5, an explanation for why this change is not greater lies in the fact that a large amount of growth over the planning period that is taking place on the edges of existing development in the region. The percentage of trips under 1 mile is expected to increase to 16.1 percent. This reflects the impact of the plan's proposed nodal development strateg?. Mode Choice Measures PM8: )~lode Shares (All Trips) This measure shows the relative share of the region's trips taken by each mode of transportation. The objective is to reduce drive-alone auto trips while increasing the number of trips taken by other modes. Mea~sures PM 8a through PM 8e indicate the relative pementage share for walk, TransPlan Chapter 4, Page 9 Exhibit A - Page 54 TransPlan Amendments
