UNSW’s annual Travel Survey provides critical input to the University’s transport strategy. The survey is run every April and completed its seventh year in 2013. The university analyses the results of this survey each year to assess and design programs, projects, systems and procedures that promote and support active walking, cycling and public transport. The results are also used to assist in the development of measures to reduce car dependence and parking demand on campus.
In 2013 the Survey results were also highly valuable in helping UNSW plan for the NSW government’s South East Light Rail project.
