It will include total flows, and a short list of travel modes: drive alone, carpool, transit and other. It is expected to be available approximately on May 2015. Census Bureau is also making progress in producing the relevant transportation tables as part of their standard products.  \nACS Content Review  \nJulie Parker, Bureau of Transportation Statistics  \n[Julie.parker@dot.gov](Julie.parker@dot.gov)  \nEarlier this year, Federal agencies participated in the 2014 American Community Survey (ACS) Content Review to help inform and shape the content of the 2016 ACS. Of obvious importance to the transportation community was the Journey to Work (JTW) questions that detail specific attributes of the commuting patterns of the American public, and that provide the foundation for the special tabulations used to produce the Census Transportation Planning Products (CTPP) . The review process involved updating statutory and regulatory authority pertaining to the use of ACS questions, as well as justifying the needs for these questions in terms of the users and uses, frequency of use, funding formulas and amounts allocated as a result of their use, required geographic specificity, etc. Program and legal staff from multiple US DOT agencies participated in this extensive review, and were further supported by an outpouring of support and cited uses from state and local agencies, and other organizations.  \nSpecial focus was placed on those ACS questions previously identified as ‘problematic’ and thus was proposed for potential removal from the survey. One particular JTW question,“What time did this person usually leave home to go to work last week?” was included on this list.  \nFederal agency input was collected through August and the Census Bureau subsequently used this information to categorize each ACS question based on the level of usefulness and cost, as defined by these four categories:  \n(1) High Benefit and Low Cost  \n(2) High Benefit and High Cost  \n(3) Low Benefit and Low Cost  \n(4) Low Benefit and High Cost  \nQuestions without a direct mandatory linkage and that fell into the Low Benefit categories were identified for potential removal. All JTW questions were considered High Benefit and therefore were excluded from potential removal. However, seven questions on the ACS were identified as Low Benefit and had no cited statutory need. Questions currently being considered for removal are:  \n􀁸 Housing Question No. 6-Business/Medical Office on Property-Is there a business (such as a store or barber shop) or a medical office on this property?  \n􀁸 Person Question No. 12-Undergraduate Field of Degree-This question focuses on this person's Bachelor's Degree. Please print below the specific major(s) of any Bachelor's Degrees this person has received.  \n􀁸 Person Question No. 21a-Get Married-In the past 12 months did this person get—Married?  \n􀁸 Person Question No. 21b-Get Widowed-In the past 12 months did this person get—Widowed?  \n􀁸 Person Question No. 21c-Get Divorced-In the past 12 months did this person get—Divorced?  \n􀁸 Person Question No. 22-Times Married-How many times has this person been married?  \n􀁸 Person Question No. 23-Year Last Married-In what year did this person last get married?  \nThe Federal Register Notice featuring the results of 2014 ACS Content Review and proposed changes was released on October 31, 2014, with a public comment period that extends until December 30, 2014.
