Caroline Bayart, Patric Bonnell

Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

This paper describes how household travel surveys response rates are decreasing. In order to reduce this bias of non-response, this paper initiated a project of a web survey in parallel of the household travel survey conducted in face to face in Lyon. The idea is to propose to households who refuse to respond or are not reachable after a certain number of attempts to respond by the web. The two main objectives of this research are to test the feasibility of a web survey for non-respondents and compare mobility results of both survey modes. Data is still not available for this article, but will be at our disposal in 2007 in order to give some results for the presentation.
