Description
While carpooling programs provide a mechanism to reduce vehicle numbers and resultant traffic congestion, they lack the permanence and systemic change required to be an effective long-term solution for air pollution in Switzerland's A1 motorway corridor. The dependency on user participation, transport infrastructure, and behavioral change poses risk factors leading to unmet targets for emission reduction. In contrast, alternatives like Smart Traffic Management Systems and Integrated Public Transport Enhancement present a more holistic approach by not only addressing congestion but also improving long-term transport infrastructure for future generations. Thus, carpooling programs should be considered as a component of a larger strategy rather than a standalone solution, ranking it lower due to its limitations compared to more systemic approaches.
