Norwegian National Travel Survey - Trondheim sample, 2009

The Norwegian National Travel Survey 2009 (RVU 2009) is the sixth national survey of travel behaviour conducted in Norway. The first was done in 1985, the next four in 1992, 1998, 2001 and 2005. The Norwegian National Travel Surveys cover personal travel of all types, including short trips taken on a daily basis and longer journeys undertaken less frequently, as well as all modes of transport, including walking. The purpose of the Norwegian National Travel Surveys is to obtain information on people's travel activity and travel patterns. The surveys include:

• the extent of people's travel
• the purpose of people's travels
• how people travel
• how travel activity varies between different population groups

In RVU 2009, just under 29,000 people aged 13 and older were interviewed. Approximately 10,000 of these constitute a representative sample for the whole country, the rest are regional additional committees.

This variant contains an extra selection from Trondheim. It has other weights than the main file and includes fewer variables, for example, long journeys are not included.
