FROM ELAINE MURAKAMI (FHWA), and NANDA SRINIVASAN
Attached is some analysis and data based on the 2000 Census data for 49 large MSAs
(Population > 1 million). The national average for travel time was 25.5 minutes, up
about 3 minutes from 22.4 minutes in 1990.
Nationally, drove alone increased from 73.2 to 75.7. Transit declined from 5.3% to 4.7%.
Carpooling declined from 13.4 (1990) to 12.2 (2000).
Thank you!
