Attached are the meeting minutes from the Transportation SWATeam meeting on 13 April 2020. 

The Agenda is as follows:

• SP20 Recommendation Status Review
• April Agenda Review
• iCAP 2020 Transportation Chapter Review

The Transportation SWATeam made the following recommendation on 4/3/2020: 

The Transportation goal on “reducing single-occupancy vehicle usage” is promising in terms of addressing a number of sustainability objectives such as reducing traffic, congestion, energy consumption, and pollution. One of the possible avenues toward this goal is a campus faculty/staff ride-sharing program for those with steady work hours who are looking for a cost-effective way to commute. This recommendation will

1. conduct a survey to examine the key factors influencing commuters’ decision to participate, policy and incentive mechanisms that properly address the interests of the commuters and other stakeholders (e.g., Parking, F&S);
2. develop a model to support the design and operation of the system (such as pricing, service frequency), and
3. long-term, implement a pilot program on campus.

Attached is the SWATeam recommendation Trans012 Carpool Survey with comments from Transportation SWATeam members.

The Transportation SWATeam made the recommendation below, which was transmitted to iSEE and approved at an iSEE Management Meeting. Meredith Moore is in communication with Julie Cidell regarding moving forward with this initiative. 

"The Transportation SWATeam kindly requests the creation of a survey which would question faculty and staff who travel out of town for conferences or other university-sponsored activities on their decided mode of transportation. This survey would be voluntary and facilitated by the Transportation SWATeam. An example of a question would be something like: 'In the past year, what has been the main reason for the travel you selected?'"

iWG Feedback on SP19 Recommendation: Carbon Credit Fund

• Focus on incentives, not punishments.

• Make a suggestion on how it could work with TEM.

• Find more data on who it would affect and how.

• Find out how to calculate the incentive for travelers and get an estimate on total cost per year.

• Maybe set the incentive for trips outside of a 3-5 hour driving radius.
