TRM Household Travel Survey

To support transportation planning in the Triangle, travel behavior survey data is currently collected every other year covering the entire region (see figure below). Surveys were initially collected in 1995, 2006 and 2016.  Starting with the 2016 survey, the survey became a recurring two year survey that has continued to 2022. Data collection was delayed from the fall of 2020 to the spring of 2021 due to COVID-19.
