Data source(s) and notes about the submission:

Instead of reflecting the total percentage of employees who use a certain mode as their primary method of transportation, the numbers above are the percentages of total trips taken by all employees in a typical work week using the above modes of transportation. The CTR (Commute Trip Reduction) Employer Survey does not measure the use of
primary modes of transportation for employees, but instead, the percentage of employees who used the mode at least once during the survey week. Since primary mode of transportation was not surveyed, we decided to use the percentages of total trips taken during the survey week because these numbers are a more fitting reflection of the types of transportation generally used by employees.

The Commute Trip Reduction Employer Survey is administered by the Washington State Department of Transportation. It is administered to all employees of the college, including full-time and part-time faculty and staff. Out of 1097 surveys that were distributed, 705 of them were returned/completed by employees.
