Today, the Census Bureau updated us on their work with the 2014 ACS Content Review. A Federal Register notice on proposed changes to the ACS will be posted in October. At this point, no major changes are planned for the journey-to-work questions. Statements of support for the journey-to-work items in response to the October Federal Register notice will reinforce the decision to leave the journey-to-work items alone.
Thank you all for your effort and support with this task!

This is something I meant to send out a while ago. We used the new CTPP
data to create an interactive web map to look at commuting in the Baltimore
Region.

Here is the September 2014 issue of the CTPP Status Report.
http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/planning/census_issues/ctpp/status_report/sr0914.cfm
We are looking for interesting uses of CTPP data or other data related to commuting, to highlight in the next issue (December 2014). If you have an idea, please let me know!
Since the CTPP tabulations do not have an annual data release, we try to use ACS standard products to help the CTPP community.
Here are our latest profiles, using 3-year ACS data summaries (2007-2009 and 2010-2012 ACS), along with CTPP2000. The geographic level is limited to State, County, and Place.

Dear CTPP list and transportation data users,
My apologies if you have already participated in this survey.
Please participate in the Census Transportation Planning Products (CTPP) program web survey at:
AASHTO CTPP Survey<http://www.surveygizmo.com/s3/1755727/AASHTO-CTPP-Survey>
The CTPP 2006-2010 was released in fall, 2013. CTPP 2006-2010 has two significant differences from the CTPP 2000: 1) it is tabulated from American Community Survey (ACS)-based microdata; and 2) it incorporates synthetic disclosure-proofed data.
In order to assess the utility of the 2006 - 2010 CTPP 5-year data product, a research team is conducting a web survey of CTPP users to better understand their issues, challenges, and opportunities in using the data for transportation purposes. The web survey effort seeks to shed light on the breadth of CTPP and ACS data usage. The survey results will also be used to develop analysis case studies to further evaluate the utility of the CTPP and ACS data.
Please click the above link to participate in the web survey
We hope you will complete the survey by September 12, 2014.
If you have questions, please contact Dr. Cemal Ayvalik at cayvalik(a)camsys.com<mailto:cayvalik@camsys.com>, 312 665 0209 or Penelope Weinberger at Pweinberger(a)aashto.org<mailto:Pweinberger@aashto.org>, 202-624-3556.
