Travel Survey for Northern Ireland

Background

The TSNI started in 1999 and is based on the National Travel Survey run by the Department for Transport. Three years of data need to be combined to ensure the analysis carried out is robust.  

UPDATE: The delay in receiving the TSNI 2017-2019 datasets continues to have a knock on effect on the usual publication timetable of the TSNI reports.  The 2017-2019 In-depth Report was published in July 2021.  The next Headline Report is currently planned for Autumn 2021.  Further updates will be announced here.

User engagement

Analysis, Statistics and Research Branch (ASRB) have carried out various user engagement activities. The latest was a user consultation exercise in relation to the content and format of the 'Travel Survey for Northern Ireland’ (TSNI) headline and in-depth reports. The consultation period ran from 7 May 2019 to 2 July 2019.

• The outcome report of this user consultation has been published.
• A statement of user needs has been produced following various TSNI user consultation activities.
