Average Vehicle occupancy is lowest for HB-Work trip purpose. You need to use household travel survey data for calculating AVO for other trip purposes. You should use the NYMTC household travel survey data from the late 1990s, and compare with 2001 NHTS results (see page 11 of the "Highlights of the 2001 NHTS" report http://nhts.ornl.gov/2001/reports.shtml You can run the 2001 NHTS data for the NY/NJ Metro area alone, using the on-line table generator on the same web-site listed above. Use the "sub-group" option and select HHC_MSA= 5602 Elaine Murakami FHWA Office of Planning 206-220-4460 -----Original Message----- From: Daniel Evans [mailto:devans@dot.state.ny.us] Sent: Wednesday, August 18, 2004 9:03 AM To: ctpp-news(a)chrispy.net Subject: Re: [CTPP] CTPP Part 2 data for New York City Does anyone know if Average Vehicle Occupancy (AVO) rates, not merely Journey to Work, can be derived from the CTPP?
