The table illustrates the distance in kilometres that travellers covered using five different modes of transport in a European nation over a period of 20 years, starting from 1995.
It is clear that car travel was the most popular means of transport throughout the period, while the use of bicycles was consistently the least popular. Additionally, there was an increase in the distance travelled by all modes of transport over the 20-year span.
In 1995, car travel was the most prevalent with 5900 kilometres, which rose dramatically to 7200 kilometres in 2005 and 7400 kilometres in 2015. Similarly, the use of buses and trains saw a steady increase over the years, with bus travel rising from 400 to 700 kilometres and train travel from 350 to 600 kilometres.
On the other hand, the distance covered by travellers on bicycles and by foot saw a less significant increase. Bicycle travel rose from 50 kilometres in 1995 to 70 kilometres in 2015, while walking increased from 200 to 300 kilometres over the same period. Despite these increases, these two modes of transport remained the least utilized.
