Journey to Work (JTW) 2006

This dataset contains a snapshot of commuting patterns for Census day 2006 (Tuesday 8th August). It is a complete enumeration via a self-completion Census form.

The scope of Journey to Work (JTW) 2006 is employed persons aged 15 years and over, who were employed the week before Census night, and with a workplace in NSW.

JTW data may produce slightly different counts to those obtained directly from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) for the same geographic level due to:

  • ABS confidentialising process is applied to the data that Transport Performance and Analytics (TPA) purchases (randomisation of small cells)
  • Further validation and adjustment of the data undertaken by Transport Performance and Analytics TPA
  • Imputation of records of incomplete addresses to eliminate locality ‘dump’ codes

ABS data is used with permission from the Australian Bureau of Statistics
