EU-wide survey carried out in 2014 with the objective of gathering in order a number of transport and mobility indicators on transport user preferences with emphasis on the potential of emerging transport technologies and the acceptability of various transport policy measures.
The main purpose of the survey was to collect data on car use, on use of transport modes for long distance mobility as well as on some other policy relevant issues (e.g. the attitude towards internalisation of road external costs by means of road charging). The survey involved all the 28 European countries. In each country a sample of 1000 individuals (500 in Cyprus, Luxembourg and Malta) was asked to fill in a questionnaire divided into four sections :
a. general information on the respondent (e.g. age, gender, living area) as well as details on availability of cars and public transport service.
b. information on everyday mobility in terms of mode used, frequency of trips, duration, distance, intermodality and opinions on main problems experienced.
c. information long distance trips (between 300 km and 1000 km as well as over 1000 km) made in the last 12 months; number of trips by purpose and main mode; connections between rail and air transport.
d. opinions on aspects related to the European transport policy and especially on the scope for road charging.
