  1. 2010 Travel Behavior Inventory Mn/DOT TDMCC-Jonathan Ehrlich October 14, 2010

  2. TBI Purpose • Provide complete picture of travel in the Twin Cities • New facilities and modes built since 2000 • Changes in society • Economic situation and fuel price volatility • Update regional travel models • Air quality conformity/planning • Transportation policy scenario analysis • Forecasts for project development

  3. Study Area

  4. Home Interview Survey Transit On-Board Survey External Origin - Destination Survey MnPASS Mode Survey Special Generator Studies U of M MSP Airport Mall of America Speed Survey Survey Components

  5. Consultant Team • Cambridge Systematics- lead, model development • AECOM- local management, model development, external station and speed studies • Abt SRBI- Household survey • Dikita Enterprises- Transit on-board survey • PlanTrans Ply- GPS sub-survey • Moshe Ben-Akiva, Frank Koppelman, Peter Stopher- advisors

  6. Home Interview Survey- Sample Plan • 12,200 households (400 7-day GPS sample) • Address-based random sample, stratified by household size and auto ownership • Some oversamples (bicycle travelers, University, MnPASS corridors, other smaller populations) • Recruit and retrieval by phone, mail, or web

  7. Home Interview Survey- Survey Instrument • Recruit- Household and Person Data • HH Composition • Number of people, age/sex/relationships, student/employment status, income, disability • Housing Data • Housing type, tenure, rent/own, cost • Transportation Data • Typical commute, licensed driver, MnPASS, transit pass/subsidy, work from home, vehicle availability, bicycle availability

  8. Home Interview Survey- Survey Instrument • Diary- Trip Data • 24 Hours- 3AM – 3AM • Location Data • Time of arrival/departure, address, activity • Trip Data • Type of transportation • Amount paid (parking cost, toll, transit fare) and how it was paid (subsidized parking, monthly payment for parking/transit) • Mode, accompanying travelers

  9. Home Interview Survey- Schedule • Pre-test (internal) • September 2010 • Pilot Survey (~1000 households) • November 2010-February 2011 • Full Survey (~11,000 households) • March 2011-June 2011

  10. Transit On-Board Survey- Survey Instrument • Boarding/alighting and origin/destination • Mode of access • Trip Purpose, auto availability, age, household size, income • Available in English, Spanish, Hmong, Somali • GPS barcode for validation, short trips • Mailback option

  11. Transit On-Board Survey- Sample Plan • Partial survey, focusing on Northstar, Hiawatha, current and potential New Starts and Arterial BRT corridors • Proportional sample • Targeting 108 routes, representing 80% of daily ridership • 10,000-15,000 completed surveys • Combine with 2005 survey data

  12. Transit On-Board Survey- Schedule • Pre-test in Aug/Sept 2010 • Survey began on Sept 27, 2010 • End date Nov 19, 2010

  13. Regional Model Development- Policy Issues • Highway • Operations, ramp metering, HOV lanes, bus shoulders, peak spreading, pricing, managed lanes, minor arterials/collectors • Transit • Operations, pricing, BRT, impact of parking policies/pricing

  14. Regional Model Development- Tour-basedmodel • Simplifying assumptions: • No linkages between tours • No interaction between household members (other than joint trips) • Stop and Tour allocation fixed among HH members • Preliminary Tour Structure (based on 2000 TBI data) • 3 daily tours • 1 HBW tour • 1 One WB tour • Up to 1 HBNW tour for people with work tour • Up to 3 HBNW tours for non-workers

  15. Regional Model Development- Policy Issues • Validation and Application to lower-level facilities (minor arterials, BRT) • New TAZ system (2600 zones in 7-county area) • New networks • Lower level, conflated, and consistent
