2001-2003 Ohio Statewide Household Travel Survey

The purpose of this study, conducted under the auspices of the Ohio Department of Transportation between August 2001 and May 2003, was to update the statewide database of household socioeconomic and travel information. Data insights were used to refine travel estimates, models, and forecasts throughout Ohio and specifically for the nine smallest metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs). The study area consists of all Ohio counties except for those that are within the MPO boundaries of Cincinnati, Cleveland, and Columbus. The study is an essential element in determining statewide and regional travel patterns. A total of 16,112 households provided recruitment and travel/activity data, and the information was retrieved from all household members regardless of age. A total of 122,463 trips were profiled during the survey during the 24-hour assigned weekday.
