Abstract

It is nowadays widely accepted that solving traffic congestion from the demand side is more important and more feasible than offering more capacity or facilities for transportation. Following a brief overview of evolution of the concept of Travel Demand Management, there is a discussion on the Travel Demand Management foundations that include demand-side strategies, traveller choice and application settings and the new dimensions that Active Forms of Transportation and Demand Management bring to Travel Demand Management, i.e. active management and integrative management. Subsequently, the paper provides a short review of the state-of-the-art of Travel Demand Management focusing on relevant literature published since 2000. Next, we highlight five relevant topics that are currently hot: traffic congestion pricing, public transit and bicycles, travel behaviour, travel plans and methodology. The paper closes with some concluding remarks.
