ITS refers to the application of advanced technology such as sensors, traffic signals, and information systems to manage and improve transportation systems efficiency and safety.

Bike lanes are designated lanes on roads for cyclists, providing a safe space for biking separate from vehicular traffic, encouraging cycling as a mode of transportation.

TOD is a type of urban development that focuses on creating compact, walkable communities centered around high-quality public transit systems, aiming to reduce car dependency.

A road diet involves reducing the number of lanes on a roadway to improve safety and make room for other uses like bike lanes, sidewalks, or landscaping.

Demand management aims to reduce traffic congestion through strategies like congestion pricing, carpooling incentives, and promotion of alternative transportation modes.

Traffic calming refers to the design and implementation of measures to reduce vehicle speeds and improve safety for pedestrians and cyclists. Examples include speed bumps, chicanes, and curb extensions.

Signal timing optimization involves adjusting the timing of traffic signals to improve traffic flow, reduce delays, and enhance road safety.

Modal split refers to the percentage distribution of how people travel, such as by car, public transit, bicycle, or walking. It is used to analyze and plan transportation systems.

Pedestrianization involves converting streets or areas to pedestrian-only zones, enhancing walkability and safety while potentially reducing vehicle traffic.

Traffic modeling uses mathematical and computational techniques to simulate and predict traffic flow and its impacts on transportation systems.

TIA studies analyze the effects that a new development or project would have on the existing transportation system and recommend any necessary mitigation measures.

Car sharing is a model of car rental where people can rent cars for short periods of time, often by the hour, which can reduce the total number of vehicles on the road.

A roundabout is a circular intersection design that forces traffic to travel in one direction around a central island. It reduces collision points and can improve traffic flow and safety.

Public transportation planning involves developing efficient, accessible, and sustainable transit systems such as buses, trains, and subways to reduce reliance on personal vehicles.

Complete streets are designed to be safe and accessible for all users, including pedestrians, cyclists, motorists, and transit riders, regardless of age or ability.
