Actively Managing <strong>Transportation</strong> Demand<br />
A <strong>New</strong> <strong>Mobility</strong> <strong>Transportation</strong> <strong>Master</strong> <strong>Plan</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>London</strong><br />
The supply and pricing of parking are also important policy tools at the City’s disposal,<br />
which can influence modal choice decisions and there<strong>for</strong>e aid in the trans<strong>for</strong>mation<br />
process. The City is currently working on short and long-term parking strategies <strong>for</strong> the<br />
downtown and these should include pricing structures that support transit. Later, with<br />
intensification of development in the transit corridors and at specific nodes, similar<br />
parking supply and pricing strategies should be considered <strong>for</strong> these areas.<br />
Another important parking initiative should be the implementation of park-and-ride<br />
facilities at the extremities of the proposed BRT lines. In other jurisdictions, this has<br />
proven to be an effective way of boosting transit ridership and reducing automobile<br />
travel, particularly <strong>for</strong> longer distance and downtown-oriented trips.<br />
Structured parking may eventually<br />
replace surface lots in the downtown<br />
