Peripheral travel study

This study was initiated to identify opportunities for near- and long-term strategic plans for the transportation needs in the boroughs other than Manhattan. Its purpose is to identify commuting patterns other than to and from the Manhattan central business districts; determine patterns of commuting into and within the other four boroughs; identify origin and destination pairs with large number of commuters and high auto modal splits; identify opportunities to encourage alternative modes of transportation; and identify areas of additional research.
