Total percentage of students (graduate and undergraduate) that use more sustainable commuting options as their primary means of transportation:
57
A brief description of the method(s) used to gather data about student commuting, including the timeframe for when the analysis was conducted and how a representative sample was reached, if applicable:
We gathered data from 3 sectors using our Parking and Transportation (P&T) Department's permitting records: Parking permits sold to students in FY 2018 (we assumed all students drove alone), metro passes (metro rail and bus together) sold to students for FY 2018, and bike permits sold to students for FY 2018. From the counts we estimated the percentage for each category. Our mobility survey that was launched in 2017 helped us assess transportation habits, specifically the average mileage for each type of commuter.
Carpooling is not tracked except when reported to Florida Department of Transportation (FL DOT) during their incentive campaigns, but it remains negligible. The number of scooter permits provided by P&T is also negligible.
