How often should the transportation survey be conducted according to best practices?

Every year
Every 2 years
At least every 5 years
Every 10 years

The correct answer is: At least every 5 years

Conducting a transportation survey at least every 5 years aligns with best practices for assessing and improving transportation systems within a facility or site. This frequency allows property managers and sustainability teams to gather relevant data on transportation patterns, needed improvements, and changes in occupant needs over a reasonable timeframe. It ensures that the data is sufficiently current to inform decisions regarding transit services, bicycle facilities, pedestrian access, and carpool options, all of which contribute to the overall effectiveness of transportation management strategies. Surveys conducted too frequently, such as annually or every 2 years, might lead to unnecessary resource expenditure for minor shifts in transportation habits, and they may not capture long-term trends effectively. Conversely, surveys conducted every 10 years may miss critical developments in transport demand, infrastructure changes, or emerging trends towards sustainability, such as electric vehicle usage or increased remote work which could influence transportation needs. Thus, a 5-year interval provides a balanced approach, ensuring the information remains relevant, actionable, and aligned with changing dynamics in transportation.
