Data presented here represents research by the Center for Urban Transportation Research (CUTR) assessing travel behavior by Blacks. It is also part of the National Urban Transit Institute research program at CUTR. The assessment of travel behavior by Blacks in the U.S. showed that all four indicators of travel (vehicle trips, vehicle miles of travel, person trips, and person miles of travel) increased between 1983 and 1990. The rate of increase in travel by Blacks exceeded the rate of increase by Non-Blacks during this period.
