Abstract:

Much research exists on intercity travel behavior between large metropolitan centers. ; There is an opportunity for more research on travel from less populated areas to large ; metropolitan ones. When planning a trip from Northern New England to major cities in the ; Northeast, there are often several transportation options to consider. This work considers ; the relationship between information access and attitudes about transportation options for ; this type of travel, using automobile, intercity bus, and passenger rail. The report explores ; relationships between access to information and attitudes about traveling from Northern ; New England to major cities in the Northeast United States by automobile, intercity bus and ; passenger rail, taking into account gender, education level, and age group. ; The primary research question is: What can we learn about the relationship between ; access to trip planning information, and people’s attitudes about traveling from Northern ; New England to major cities in the Northeast by automobile, bus, and passenger rail?
