| Abstract | This report is part of a series that provides findings from the 1977 Nationwide Personal Transportation Study (NPTS). Data related to the urban/rural split of travel are analyzed for all trips and vehicle miles of travel made in a private motor vehicle on a designated travel day by place of residence of traveler, location of travel, and trip purpose. The tables show the proportion of vehicle miles of travel generated by urban residents which remained within the boundaries of their urban area identified as the home urban area. In addition. the tables show the percent of travel generated in the home urban area by urban residents outside the area and rural residents. Variables relating distribution of trips and vehicle miles of travel to average trip length, mode of transportation and trip type are also shown. |
