ACT Household Travel Survey: Origins and Destinations of Travel (2022)

ACT HTS - 05 Locations of Travel (2022) replicates selected data tables from the ACT & Queanbeyan Household Travel Survey dashboard. The dataset contains survey data from several thousand households, focusing on the origins and destinations of trips on an average weekday. It was published by the ACT Government Open Data, TCCS Data Capability, and last updated on 2026-06-27.

Use Cases

• Modeling urban travel demand based on origin-destination trip data.
• Analyzing peak travel times (AM, PM, interpeak, off-peak) based on the described trip time period assignment.
• Studying travel behavior for specific activities, excluding return-home trips, as highlighted in the description.
• Assessing travel to and from areas outside the primary study area, as noted in the geographical notes.

Strengths

• Provides data both with and without home trips included in separate tabs, allowing focused analysis.
• Includes travel to areas not directly surveyed, offering a broader view of travel destinations.
• Trip times are assigned using the midpoint of travel into defined periods (AM peak, PM peak, Interpeak, Off-peak).

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
