 Q1 Progress

Reported January 2025

The transportation sector forms the single largest contribution of GHG emissions in Dallas (34%), of which 98 percent is attributed to on-road transportation. The majority (78%) of Dallas residents drive to work alone, while another 23.2% carpool, telework (4.8%), and use transit (3.8%), and other modes of transportation. In FY 24-25, 13 actions from this sector, with 24 milestones, will be initiated. Implementation of these milestones will involve collaboration between the following City departments:

  • Equipment & Fleet Management

  • Transportation & Public Works

  • Environmental Quality & Sustainability

  • Planning & Development

 

Note: Actions marked as ongoing span multiple fiscal years, meaning efforts will be carried out continuously and therefore will not be marked complete until the end of this fiscal year.
