This survey, conducted by NuStats, was a comprehensive study of travel behavior in Knox and Blount counties in the Knoxville urban area. The purpose of the survey was to collect weekday travel characteristics of household members (ages five and older) in the counties during a 24-hour timeframe. The data will be used by the Knoxville Urban Area Metropolitan Planning Organization and local agencies to update transportation and air quality models and to identify transportation needs in the region. The survey was conducted between November 2000 and February 2001. In total, 2,674 households were recruited to participate in the survey. Of these, 1,538 households reported data from a one-day travel log, totaling 12,631 trips by 3,522 persons. Of all trips originating in the study area, three-fourths were made by persons residing in Knox County.
