Regional
Household Travel Survey Results (3MB,

The data collected during MARC's most comprehensive regional household
travel survey to date will be used to support transportation planning
projects, including travel forecasts, highway and transit feasibility
studies, land-use planning, parking studies, and planning for bicycle
and pedestrian facilities.
Regional Household Travel Survey Final Report 2004 (3.1MB, pdf)
On-board
Transit Survey 2005 (3MB, pdf)
In 2005, MARC directed an on-board passenger survey to track travel patterns
as a follow-up to the regional household travel survey completed in 2004.
Survey results offer insights about how and where to expand transit
availability into other markets and increase service for existing routes.
The data will be used to update the regional travel demand
model, which helps forecast future travel characteristics within the Kansas
City metropolitan area.
