Book Description

This conference is the latest in a three-decade working relationship between the Census Bureau and the transportation community to improve the quality and quantity of transportation related data collected in the U.S. Census of Population and Housing. A similar conference held in 1973 in Albuquerque resulted in many improvements to the 1980 census. It is hoped that the Orlando conference and this subsequent report will have a significant effect on the conduct and results of the 1990 census. The conference proceedings include many background papers prepared for and presented at the meeting as well as the conference workshop summaries, the recommendations of each workshop, and an overall synthesis of all the conference findings and recommendations.

TRB has released the third edition of Commuting in America. The report was prepared by author Alan E. Pisarski under a joint project of the National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) and the Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP). Commuting in America III is one of the most comprehensive documents of its kind. Based on the latest census information available, it contains 155 figures, 79 tables, and some 100 "factlets" that tell the story of America's commuting trends and patterns over the last ten years. This publication will be a valuable reference for the transportation community--practitioners, researchers, and decision makers--who wish to understand how individual behavior and public policies have affected, and will continue to affect, commuting patterns. A press release and factsheets on information contained in Commuting in America III is also available.
