Total percentage of the institution’s employees that use more sustainable commuting options as their primary method of transportation:
31
A brief description of the method(s) used to gather data about employee commuting, including the timeframe for when the analysis was conducted and how a representative sample was reached, if applicable:
In Q4 2017, 12 campus departments, including Academic partners and the Institutional Research Dept., teamed up to launch and close a campus-wide transportation survey. The Institutional Research office sent the survey directly to a representative sample of campus for all students, faculty and staff, but they do not publish their methodology publicly. We received responses from >8% of the total campus population.
The numbers herein reflect responses from Graduate Students, Faculty and Staff because these groups received a slightly difference survey than our undergraduate population.

Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
UD's Transportation Survey calculated each transportation mode separately based on frequency of transit in order to capture better multi-modal data from campus users. As a result the totals herein don't quite equal 100%, and there is a small margin of error.
We used the "most often" category to answer these questions. In our survey this represented transportation options utilized more than half of the days / weeks out of each month.
