Abstract:The 1990 Nationwide Personal Transportation Survey (NPTS) provides a comprehensive look at personal travel in the U. S. The 1990 survey and the three earlier surveys in the NPTS series yield important data on the travel behavior of the American population. The data is from a survey of individuals conducted throughout 1990. The NPTS series provides data to examine the relationship among social and demographic change, land development patterns, and transportation. This series is an essential tool for those seriously interested in understanding travel behavior and transportation planning issues. A large number of data relationships are presented and, therefore, the report is printed in two volumes. Volume I contains information on the survey itself, a comparison of estimates of miles of travel taken from different portions of the survey, data on households, drivers and vehicles, and an extensive chapter on person trips and person miles of travel by all modes of transportation. Volume II includes data on vehicle trips and vehicle miles of travel, journey-to-work trips, vehicle occupancy, long trips, commercial driving and highway accidents. To the degree possible, each chapter within the report is organized to present results in the order of: person characteristics, household characteristics, trip characteristics, and temporal characteristics. The document is interactive, allowing the user to click on a chapter, then expand the chapter to contents, tables, and figures. From the table and figure listings, one can go directly to the desired item. 689p.; 4135k. TRIS Accession Numbers 00641412 & 00715010
