Introduction
Land Transport New Zealand has developed separate methods for evaluating the wide range of potential TDM proposals
Guidance for selecting the appropriate evaluation method
| IF the main component of the TDM proposal is … | Then |
|---|---|
| A new service or facility or an improvement to an existing service or facility (other than for walking and cycling) | Complete the demand estimate; financial analysis and benefits and costs assessment as outlined in chapters 4-7. Simplified procedures are provided for freight transport services, new passenger transport services and existing transport services - refer to chapter 5. |
| A new or improved walking or cycling facility | A simplified procedure is available for the evaluation. Refer to chapter 8 for the appropriate methodology. |
| A travel behaviour change programme (where infrastructure is <$150,000) | A simplified procedure is available for the evaluation. Refer to chapter 9 |
| A travel behaviour change programme (where infrastructure is >$150,000) | A composite evaluation is required - refer to chapter 9 and appropriate sections of volume 1. |
| Parking management measures | Refer to chapter 10 If undertaken within a TBhC programme - refer to chapter 9 |
| Private sector financing and road tolling | Refer to chapter 11. |
| A combination of any of the above TDM strategies and/or a roading infrastructure project(s) | A composite evaluation is required using the appropriate chapters from this manual and, where necessary, volume 1. |
