EBOM-v4 LTc1: Alternative transportation
Hi,
Struggling to find options for alternative transportation for a planned LEED EBOM project in Qatar :S
Is shuttle service offered by the building owner to commute buildings occupants from their homes to work acceptable?

Do motorcycles qualify as an alternative means of transportation? What about scooters?
Does the survey need to adhere to SCAQMD Rule 2202 procedures, like in LEED 2009?
What if we already participate in a local transportation survey? Can we use those results?
Do we have to collect home zip code data in our survey?
My building has fewer than 100 occupants. What should my sample size be?

I am not an EBOM expert. But it is all about results, and is less strict about prescriptive means. I would think this solution would count. Have you double-checked the guidance in the LEED Reference Guide, and not just the credit language, for indication of more examples on what this means?

Hi Shakir, just wanted to mention that the Transportation Modes table in the Reference Guide includes a 'rideshares' option. It's shown as applicable to non-US projects only and might fit what you describe. Otherwise I do think a shuttle service would qualify as a mode of alternative transit.
