TOP funds innovative projects that aim to reduce single-occupancy vehicle (SOV) trips and promote alternative travel options. Funded projects must align with the goals, outcomes, and strategies in DVRPC's Strategic Plan for Regional TDM Programs (the Regional TDM Plan) and include measurable results.

TOP is primarily funded with Surface Transportation Block Grant Program (STBGP) dollars. Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement (CMAQ) eligible projects located in the New Jersey portion of the Philadelphia, PA--NJ--DE--MD Urbanized Area may also be funded using NJ CMAQ funds.
