A new report out from USPIRG documents significant reductions in automobile miles traveled and number of workers commuting without a car. Madison shows a 3% reduction in commuting by car and a 17.7% reduction in auto miles traveled between 2006 and 2011. Bike/walk/transit trips are increasing concurrently.
Time to re-do our travel-demand forecasting models and funding assumptions to reorient towards multimodal trips, don't you think? Here is the link to the report: http://uspirg.org/sites/pirg/files/reports/US_Transp_trans_scrn.pdf
