    • Abstract:
      The Triangle Travel Behavior Survey, an essential element in the regional study of transportation activity and travel patterns, was conducted under the auspices of the Triangle Transit Authority. This report documents the design, implementation, and results of the Triangle Travel Behavior Survey. The survey was conducted July 1994 through May 1995, with data collection taking place November 1994 through April 1995. The data represent the activity and travel behavior of 2,045 Research Triangle area households. The survey was designed and carried out to accomplish three objectives: (1) Provide up-to-date travel information; (2) Provide information about household and travel characteristics; and (3) Provide a basis for future projections. The study focused on the Research Triangle region, which is comprised of Wake, Durham, and Orange counties, with a total estimated population in 1992 of 737,269 persons. In addition, specific areas in Harnett, Chatham, Person, Granville, Franklin, and Johnston counties were included in the study. The Triangle Travel Behavior Survey provides detailed information about 1,778 randomly selected households and 267 specially recruited transit using households. In total, 2,660 households were recruited for participation in the study. This number reflected a recruitment rate of 47% of study area households. A total of 2,045 households, or 77% of those initially recruited, ultimately completed the survey. The survey relied upon a widely used method of data collection known as the "trip diary." The Triangle Travel Behavior Survey expanded the trip diary concept (in which specific information is collected about the travel behavior of each member of a household ) to include activities performed, as well as trips taken, during a given two-day period. 40 Tables, 3 figures, 2 appendices. 1,992k, 53 p.
