Household Travel Surveys, Singapore

The project mainly comprised gathering information on the travel patterns of 70,000 Singapore residents for the period 2016-2019. We led the overall study which included data collection, data analysis and reporting of travel trends and characteristics. The surveys were conducted through a mixture of traditional face-to-face Household Interview Surveys (HIS) and the recruitment of respondents to a Mobile Travel Survey (MTS) which was a smartphone app tracking and recording the travel pattern of respondents.
