DEVELOPING A HOUSEHOLD TRAVEL PANEL SURVEY FOR THE PUGET SOUND REGION

The Puget Sound Transportation Panel (PSTP) is the first application of a general-purpose urban travel panel survey in the United States. Following the Dutch National Mobility Panel, it responds to needs for direct data on the effects of demographic characteristics and transportation conditions on household travel behavior in an urban area. The first-wave travel diaries for the 1,687-household sample in the PSTP were completed in 1989. The sample was stratified by travel mode and residence county. The panel was surveyed for attitudes and values in early 1990, and a second wave of travel diaries was scheduled for late 1990.
