This is a competitive contract solicitation to support the California Air Resources Board (CARB or Board) Sustainable Transportation and Communities Division. CARB encourages proposers to form multidisciplinary teams to fulfill contract requirements. Principal Investigators (PIs) must be affiliated with University of California and California State Universities; however, CARB encourages PIs to recruit non-academic and diverse partners when appropriate.
The objective of this project is to develop an evaluation framework and identify performance metrics to assess the synergistic equity impacts of place-based, community-scale mobility investments during and after project implementation. The resulting framework should be adaptable for diverse mobility project types and minimize the data collection burden for grantees while also supporting a robust quantitative evaluation of the real-world outcomes relevant to equity-related program objectives. It should incorporate local community context and measure the synergistic effects of multiple complementary mobility investments. This project will build on existing evaluation methods by incorporating new academic research and lessons learned from relevant pilot projects.
