Abstract:The campus travel survey is a joint effort by the Transportation & Parking Services (TAPS) on campus and the Sustainable Transportation Center, part of the Institute of Transportation Studies at UC Davis, meant to be administered annually each fall by a graduate student at the Institute of Transportation Studies. The main purpose of the survey is to collect annual data on how the UC Davis community travels to campus, including mode choice, vehicle occupancy, distances traveled, and vehicle/bicycle parking. It also offers an opportunity for TAPS to assess awareness of campus transportation services and perceptions of mobility options. This year's survey is the third administration of the campus travel survey, which was first administered in the spring of 2006-07 as a pilot effort. The 2008-09 survey was administered online in October 2008, distributed by email to a stratified random sample of 14,031 students, faculty, and staff. About 30 percent (4,133 individuals) responded to this year's survey, with about 26 percent actually completing it. For the statistics we present throughout this report, we weighted the responses by role group (freshmen, sophomore, junior, senior, master's student, PhD student, faculty, and staff) so that the proportion of respondents in each group reflects their proportion in the campus population.
