Overview

Innovative Mobility Research (IMR) is a group of researchers whose projects explore and evaluate innovative applications of new technologies, policies, and evaluation tools that seek to simultaneously expand and enhance the available transportation choices; better manage demand for transportation services; and improve the environment. IMR designs research projects and conducts evaluations throughout California, the U.S., and internationally. It is based at the Transportation Sustainability Research Center (TSRC) at the University of California, Berkeley. Some of these projects include: “first and last mile” transit solutions; value pricing for parking and managed lanes; shared-use modes; alternative-fuel vehicles and technologies; and new land-use planning techniques to more closely link land use with transportation system design.
