* Expanded transit and other innovative strategies focused on congested commute corridors
based on the results of a comprehensive, systemwide study and plan. Potential projects
include express commuter bus service, new transit options, last mile strategies (e.g., bike
share), and other commute alternatives.
These strategies would be aimed at supporting the continued economic vitality and
employment growth in the Silicon Valley, further reducing reliance on single -occupancy
vehicle use for commuting, and providing new options to get people from where they live to
where they work.
