Foreword

History and Context

This document is an executive summary of a series of 16 briefs
that collectively describe commuting in America. This body of work,
sponsored by the American Association of State Highway and
Transportation Officials (AASHTO) and carried out in conjunction
with a National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP)
project that provided supporting data, builds on three prior
Commuting in America (CIA) documents that were
issued over the past three decades. Unlike the prior reports that
were single volumes, this effort consists of a series of briefs,
each of which addresses a critical aspect of commuting in America.
The briefs, this Executive Summary, and accompanying data
tables complete the body of information known as Commuting in
America 2013 (CIA 2013). AASHTO makes these items
available via its website
(traveltrends.transportation.org).

The Commuting in America series of reports describing
travelers and their commute to work began in April 1984, using
Census data to describe the emerging patterns of commuting. The
original intent of CIA, well-stated by Frank François, former
executive director of AASHTO, was "to serve as a common resource of
factual information upon which policymakers can draw in shaping
transportation development actions and policies over the coming
years.... It does not purport to reflect the policy positions of
any of the sponsoring organizations and should not be interpreted
in this manner." CIA 2013 continues to adhere to
this original intent and philosophy.

This report is supported as part of the AASHTO Census
Transportation Planning Products (CTPP) program. This multi-year
initiative, of which CIA 2013 is part, provides data and
analysis on commuting to support the information needs of the state
and metropolitan transportation planning and policy community.
