    Transportation Demand Management (TDM) promotes carpooling, vanpooling, riding transit, walking, biking, teleworking and flexible work hours. TDM outreach and programming activities are geared toward employers, employees, property managers, residents, students and visitors. The benefits to the community include maximizing the efficiency of the existing transportation system and limiting the impacts of traffic in Bellevue neighborhoods, mitigating our impact on climate change, reducing natural land and animal habitat loss, and reducing air and water pollution. The city maintains a website, ChooseYourWayBellevue.org, with information about transportation options and the Bellevue TDM Program’s services to support employers, employees, property managers, residents and students.

    TDM Plan

    The TDM plan, which covers 2024 through 2033, includes strategies to support use of sustainable alternatives to driving alone. The TDM Plan seeks to address significant transportation-related environmental issues while helping people get around Bellevue more efficiently as the city grows and the transportation system evolves. 

    During the TDM Plan’s ten-year time frame, Bellevue will be home to several transformative transportation investments including the 2 Line (East Link light rail), the Eastrail trail corridor, Sound Transit’s Stride bus rapid transit (BRT), King County Metro’s RapidRide K Line, I-405 express toll lane expansion from Bellevue to Renton and more.

    The TDM Plan includes a review of existing plans and programs, vision statement and goals, drive-alone mode share targets, accompanying performance metrics, and strategies to meet the targets and goals. The plan also includes an implementation framework, which identifies partnerships and potential funding sources, including state and federal grants. The planning process draws on a substantial body of available data and best practices information, results of surveys, and public review and comment.

    TDM Plan public input process

    The draft plan was posted for public review and input via the Engaging Bellevue online open house, from March 1 through May 15, 2024.  Bellevue TDM staff presented the plan to the Bellevue Downtown Association (BDA) Focus Group on TDM and the Bellevue Chamber of Commerce Transportation Committee. Public and stakeholder input was shared with appropriate regionwide partner agencies and city departments. In response to public and stakeholder input, TDM staff have adjusted the plan’s strategies and the Bellevue TDM program where appropriate. To view the TDM Plan public input themes and staff responses, please visit the Choose Your Way Bellevue library.

    Progress reporting

    The city's 2022 Transportation Demand Management Progress Report summarizes TDM programs, activities and results. The report is updated about every two years.
