Description
The Atlanta Regional Commission (ARC) is seeking proposals for the administration of an activity-based Regional Household Travel Survey. The survey aims to develop a travel behavior database for the Atlanta Metropolitan Region, supporting periodic updates for ongoing testing of alternative future growth scenarios. The project involves collecting travel data from a minimum of 8,000 households, including information on trip patterns, purpose, length, mode, origin-destination, and household socio-economic characteristics. The successful firm should demonstrate a comprehensive understanding of data requirements, data collection techniques, and quality control measures. Key tasks include project management, quality assurance, survey data sampling, data weighting, and travel behavior storytelling.
• The project has a budget of approximately $1,875,000.
• The survey will collect data on travel behavior, including trip patterns, purpose, length, mode, origin-destination, and household socio-economic characteristics.
• The project requires experience in data collection, statistically based small sample survey research techniques, and quality control measures.
• The successful firm should be prepared to begin work immediately and complete the project by July 31, 2027.
