Trip Reduction Program
0500-0110
Support the implementation of the Maricopa County Trip Reduction Program. The Maricopa
County Air Quality department administers the Trip Reduction Program to reduce single
occupancy vehicle use by all major employers and schools with 50 or more employees
or students, based on the trip reduction ordinance. The Trip Reduction Program is a
transportation control measure in several MAG air quality plans.
Continuing Objectives for FY 2022-2023 and Results From FY 2020-2021
OBJECTIVE: Provide employers with training, technical assistance, and promotion of alternative
transportation modes and strategies to reduce single occupancy vehicle travel and achieve trip
reduction program goals.
Outcome Measure 1
FY 2020-2021 Results
Increase by two percent the number of
alternative Vehicle Miles Traveled by
Trip Reduction Program participants
from the level achieved in FY 2019.
For FY 2020, the number of alternative Vehicle Miles Traveled by “All” sites
decreased by 49.74% from the previous fiscal year. “Employee” sites had
a decrease of 51.20%, while “Student” sites decreased by 35.88%. These
results were lower than expected due to the Trip Reduction Program (TRP)
COVID-19 Variance. For FY 2021, due to the Trip Reduction Program COVID-
19 Variance employers were not required to survey, submit a plan, and/or
distribute incentives from March 20 to September 30, 2020, and no data are
available for reporting at this time. Surveying employers were not required to
submit their completed surveys until November and December 2020. TRP is
presently gathering and processing surveys.
FY 2022-2023 Goals
Increase by two percent the number of alternative vehicle miles traveled by
Trip Reduction Program participants from the level achieved in FY 2021.
Outcome Measure 2
FY 2020-2021 Results
Increase by two percent the “tons of
pollution saved” for those commuters
using an alternative mode of travel to
get to their workplace from the level
achieved in FY 2019.
For FY 2020, the amount of “tons of pollution saved” annually by “All” site
types for this fiscal year was 3,574 tons. “Employee” sites saved 3,141 tons,
while “Student” sites saved 433 tons. For “All” site types, this was a decrease
of 48.84%, when compared to last year. These results were lower than
expected due to the Trip Reduction Program (TRP) COVID-19 Variance. For
FY 2021, due to the Trip Reduction Program COVID-19 Variance employers
were not required to survey, submit a plan, and/or distribute incentives from
March 20 to September 30, 2020, and no data are available for reporting at
this time. Surveying employers were not required to submit their completed
surveys until November and December 2020. TRP is presently gathering and
processing surveys.
FY 2022-2023 Goals

MAG Considerations/Guidelines for Promotional Items
Should be appropriate to target audience.
Should have call to action - Web site/phone number at minimum.
Should advance the mission.
According to the Cost Principles for State, Local, and Indian Tribal Governments
(2 CFR Part 225, formerly known as OMB Circular A-87), unallowable advertising and
public relations costs include costs of advertising and public relations designed solely to
promote the governmental unit.
Cost considerations – Is the cost appropriate and effective for the number of
impressions/influence achieved? Would an alternate advertising strategy reach more
people for the same or a lesser amount of funding?
Should be items that are business related and could be used in the office, where
feasible.
Should be recyclable or made from recycled or renewable materials, where feasible.
Agencies should exercise good judgment and be sensitive to the appearance and
perception of the item.
