City of Round Rock seeks volunteers for commuter survey

By Community Impact Newspaper Staff Monday, 13 April 2009

The City of Round Rock invites residents to participate in a five-day commuter survey. The data collected will be used to determine the time-competitiveness of a commuter rail trip over a typical auto trip for daily commuting. Participants will be asked to keep logs of their drive times for five days, noting places they enter and exit IH 35, total drive times and time spent running errands.

The survey will be conducted from April 20 to May 1. Participants can record their commutes on any five days within that period. The days do not need to be consecutive but should be representative of a typical commute.

To qualify, participants must live in Williamson County, commute daily along IH 35 and work in central or downtown Austin.

To participate, download the driver’s log form (Link: http://www.roundrocktexas.gov/docs/daily_commute_log.pdf).
