BPP and Transportation Demand Management

The Business Partnership Program will develop and promote Transportation Demand Management (TDM) programs that encourage the use of alternative modes of transportation to improve air quality and decrease traffic congestion in the Albuquerque area.

BPP Mission

The Transportation Demand Management (TDM) programs implemented by the public and private sectors help reduce traffic and sustain Albuquerque's economic vitality and air quality, thereby preserving and strengthening the quality of life in the city.
