On September 22, the City Planning Commission (CPC) recommended approval of the City’s Transportation Demand Management Ordinance update. Managed by City Planning and the Los Angeles Department of Transportation (LADOT), the updated ordinance aims to reduce dependence on drive-alone commuting in Los Angeles, improve air quality, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Furthermore, the ordinance increases transportation options and accessibility throughout the City, and allows flexibility for future changes to transportation technology and services. It expands the number of new projects that are required to implement strategies such as supporting transit, telecommuting, carshare, and neighborhood shuttles, as well as other strategies that reduce vehicle trips and support general public health benefits.
In the coming weeks, the ordinance will advance to City Council for consideration and final adoption. To sign up for updates, please email planning.mobility@lacity.org
