National Travel Survey (NTS)

Full name of the series in original language
National Travel Survey (NTS)
Abstract

The Quarterly National Household Survey (QNHS) is a comprehensive nationwide survey of households designed to primarily produce quarterly labour force estimates. It also covers topics of specific social interest in additional modules each quarter.
The National Travel Survey (NTS) is conducted in the fourth quarter of the Quarterly National Household Survey (QNHS).
It is internationally accepted that the most comprehensive method to collect data on transport modal splits is to have respondents complete a seven day travel diary. However, to reduce respondent burden and increase response rates,many countries have adopted an alternative of a 24 hour diary. This latter methodology was used for the collection of the NTS data.
