Objective 1: Enhance Mobility for Underserved Communities This aspect of the study focuses on addressing commuting barriers faced by underserved communities and developing pilot projects aimed at overcoming these challenges. The study seeks to measure the impact of equitable solutions on improving access to essential services, employment opportunities, and educational facilities, thereby contributing to the overall economic and social well-being of these communities. Objective 2: Promote Sustainable Commute Options The study also aims to evaluate the effectiveness of initiatives designed to increase the adoption of sustainable commute options, such as carpooling, vanpooling, public transit, walking, and cycling. This involves assessing the impact of educational campaigns and incentive programs on changing commuting behaviors. A key focus is on understanding how these initiatives can be tailored to meet the needs of different demographic groups, including K-12 students and their families, as well as the broader commuting population. The study intends to identify best practices for encouraging sustainable commuting habits that can be replicated in other regions.
