A successful Transportation System Plan (TSP) integrates multiple modes of transportation, providing seamless connectivity for users. Multimodal transportation encourages the use of cars, public transit, bicycles, and walking, offering individuals the flexibility to choose the most efficient and sustainable mode for their journey.
Integrating multimodal options into a TSP ensures that each mode of transport complements the others. For instance, combining bus routes with bike-sharing systems and pedestrian-friendly walkways allows people to switch between modes effortlessly.
By promoting multimodal integration, cities can reduce reliance on single-occupancy vehicles, decrease traffic congestion, and improve overall transportation efficiency.
