National Transportation Atlas Database
The Means of Transportation to Work dataset was compiled using information from December 31, 2023 and updated December 12, 2024 from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) and is part of the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT)/Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) National Transportation Atlas Database (NTAD). The Means of Transportation to Work table from the 2023 American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year estimates was joined to 2023 tract-level geographies for all 50 States, District of Columbia and Puerto Rico provided by the Census Bureau. A new file was created that combines the demographic variables from the former with the cartographic boundaries of the latter. The national level census tract layer contains data on the number and percentage of commuters (workers 16 years and over) that used various transportation modes to get to work.
The Means of Transportation to Work tract shapefile can be used within the public, the federal government, rail industry, state DOTs, and academia for routing, mapping and analysis.

Data set is considered complete for the information presented, as described in the abstract. Users are advised to read the rest of the metadata record carefully for additional details.
The demographic data was downloaded from data.census.gov (table B08006) - ACS 5-year estimates from 2023. These were joined to the 2020 Census Tracts from the 2023 TIGER/Line National Sub-State Geography Geodatabase file for the entire US (excluding the island geometries - State FPs 60, 66, 69, and 78) using a Python script to join the GEOIDs correctly.
