Implementation
Cost:
$ = <$100,000$$ = $100,000 - $1,000,000$$$ = >$1,000,000
Time frame:Short = fully implementable within 5 yearsMedium = implementable within 5 – 10 yearsLong = implementable within 10 – 20 years, or longer

Greenhouse gas (GHG) impacts
Strategy effectiveness is measured in several ways:–GHG emissions reduction potential–Vehicle miles travelled (VMT)
reduction potential–Qualitatively where there is little
data on effectiveness
