Mode Shift

The program invests in, tests, and expands programs that reduce car trips, provides new mobility solutions, and makes options like biking, walking, and transit the easy choice.

Additionally, The Mode Shift program aims to further racial equity through projects and programs that directly reach and engage low-income, disabled, and/or communities of color to address their community’s transportation needs.
