FundyTRAC: Fundy Travel Activity Survey
The Fundy Travel Activity (FundyTRAC) Survey is designed to better understand how residents of the Fundy Region travel in their daily lives. The survey collects information about where trips begin and end, why they are made, when they occur, and what modes of transportation people use.
This type of study, known as an Origin‑Destination Survey, is a key tool to support evidence‑based transportation planning. By participating, residents help ensure that future transportation decisions reflect real travel patterns and community needs.
The Fundy Regional Service Commission (FRSC) is partnering with Dalhousie Transportation Collaboratory (DalTRAC), a national leader in transportation research, to deliver the region’s first comprehensive travel activity survey. DalTRAC has completed similar surveys across the country, including a survey for the Southeast Regional Service Commission.
