Transit agencies often provide discounted fares and improved services. Student, employee and neighborhood organizations are often involved in program planning. Such programs often require coordinating efforts by a variety of organizations, including campus planners and administrators, local government, transit agencies, and user groups. Some campus planners may see little reason to implement TDM programs unless they perceive an immediate parking or traffic congestion problem. Programs that include parking price increases often face resistance from user groups, including student and employee organizations.
Funding is often a limiting factor.
