If you’re not careful, limiting parking capacity could be frustrating for occupants, and not behavior-changing. Consider strategies that go above and beyond the credit requirements:

• Encourage carpooling through educational programs and through reward programs for employees who carpool. Choose a strategy that your population would be receptive to, like reduced parking fees or designated parking spots.
• Consider subsidizing mass transit passes, and providing information about public transportation and bike routes.
• If your project is not located near public transportation, consider setting up a shuttle bus to transport employees to the closest commuter hub, providing an incentive for them not to drive. Survey employees to assess interest in such a service. Doing so could also contribute to SSc3.1.
• If you develop a comprehensive transportation management plan that demonstrates a measurable reduction in personal use of cars, you can also earn an Exemplary Performance point through IDc1.
