Corporate response to transportation disruptions: Options and opportunities

Martin M. Stein and Ann Muzyka

Energy, 1983, vol. 8, issue 8, 675-681

Abstract: A framework for analyzing company travel demand and determining its transport capacity under alternative scenarios is presented. Within the framework, options for meeting transport demand are evaluated and considered on an iterative basis until acceptable levels of performance are obtained. Among the options considered are a company gasoline storage facility, an electric-car user evaluation, joint ride-sharing ventures with neighboring companies, upgrading public transportation, parking incentives, and a company-sponsored van pool system. Many of these options can also be adapted to routine, day-to-day operations; e.g., company vans used for business during off-peak hours can be used for employee van pooling for journey-to-work trips during peak hours.
