TxDOT Workplace Travel Survey

Posted on February 9th, 2010

TxDOT has contracted with GRAM Traffic Counting to conduct a Workplace Travel Survey.

TxDOT sponsored surveyors will be stationed at some area businesses to ask visitors to answer a few questions about their travel to the location. TxDOT would like to encourage all who are asked to participate in the survey, but emphasizes that participation is totally voluntary.

This survey will collect travel information from both employees and visitors during workplace hours for that establishment.

The purpose of the work place travel survey is to collect information on the amount of travel that is attracted by work places on a daily basis

Data collected will serve as input to local and/or regional travel demand models that forecast future traffic levels and patterns on the area roads and highways. The survey data, along with the model, will assist TxDOT, KTMPO and MPO-member entities in transportation planning and the development of local and regional transportation improvement programs (TIP).
