VMT Mitigation Program Implementation Flowcharts
VMT Mitigation Program Implementation Flowcharts
This resource package helps public agencies, regional partners, and development teams compare three common VMT mitigation approaches: VMT Banks, VMT Exchanges, and VMT Impact Fee Programs.
Each flowchart breaks down key steps and considerations, including program scale, sponsorship, mitigation effectiveness, legal formation, nexus requirements, interagency agreements, environmental review, and long-term monitoring. Together, they offer a practical starting point for understanding which approach may fit a community’s needs and what it can take to move from concept to implementation.
These resources may be especially useful when agencies and development teams are exploring clearer, more consistent ways to address VMT impacts while balancing technical, legal, and administrative considerations.

Bike & Bus Interaction on Our Streets
Bus operators and people on bikes often share road space, travel at similar speeds, and have very different sizes, making moving easily and safely an ongoing challenge. We recently partnered with LA Metro on a comprehensive review of bike/bus interactions in LA County, and together, developed a set of design and education recommendations that can help and may be applied anywhere in the United States. Take a look!
