STATE OF THE COMMUTE IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, 1992

The 1992 State of the Commute survey, conducted by Commuter Transportation Services (CTS), is based on a telephone survey of 2,512 commuters residing within Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, and Ventura counties. The survey provides updated information on commuters' travel behavior and attitudes toward the commute, traffic congestion, alternative travel modes, employer transportation programs, and high-occupancy vehicle lanes. Data obtained from the 1992 survey are compared with those obtained from CTS's previous State of the Commute surveys to uncover changes in behavior and attitudes. With the presence of the South Coast Air Quality Management District's Regulation XV and the Ventura County Air Pollution Control District's Rule 210, it is expected that the increased attention given to air quality, alternative travel modes, and work schedules by the media and at employer work sites will result in changes in travel behavior and attitudes.
