NTEM Car Ownership

DatasetsMulti-modal and strategic planningRoad

What is it?
A dataset showing levels of car ownership across MSOA areas using NTEM data from the Department for Transport. It sets out how many cars households have, based on standardised national forecasts.


How is it useful?
Use it to understand patterns of car access and how these may influence travel behaviour. It helps you test assumptions in modelling, explore future scenarios where local data is limited, and consider how car ownership could shape demand for different modes. As a national dataset, it is best used for strategic analysis rather than detailed local planning.

Limitations

NTEM planning data represents a snapshot in time and is geographically aggregate. Local plans, especially those that have recently changed, may not be well represented in this data.
