RE: [CTPP] information on average commuter travel time in the U.S.

According to CTPP table 12230 Mean Travel Time by Mode for Workers 16 +, based on the 2006 - 2008 ACS data (attached), 25.3 is the Mean travel time for all modes (plus or minus .09 minutes), to get a more refined table by specific geography or mode, go to http://ctpp.transportation.org/Pages/3yrdas.aspx and click Take me to the data...

I remember reading somewhere the average American drives something like 26 minutes(or thereabouts) one way to work each day but in this case I am specifically looking for a number of miles traveled one way. Any help with this question would be appreciated. Thanks Kaine McClelland Nebraska Dept. of Roads Transportation Planner 1400 Highway 2 Lincoln, NE 68509 phone: 402-479-3937
