Overall, the data indicates an increase in total passenger kilometres over the 10-year period. Bus and rail emerged as the most popular modes of transport. In 1990, total passenger kilometres stood at 100 billion, reaching over 110 billion in 2000.
Specifically, bus and rail were the top choices in 1990, accounting for 45 and 40 billion kilometres respectively. Both modes saw a moderate increase to approximately 50 billion kilometres by 2000. Conversely, the lesser-utilized modes such as bicycle, motorbike, and air covered a modest distance of just under 8 billion kilometres in 1990. While bicycle and motorbike experienced a slight decline by 2 billion kilometres, air travel expanded and concluded the period at 10 billion kilometres.
The total passenger kilometres traveled saw a growth from approximately 100 billion in 1990 to over 110 billion in 2000. Notably, bus and rail were the preferred modes of transport in both years, with bus surpassing rail by approximately 5 billion kilometres in 2000. Motorbike travel showed a marginal increase, while bicycle kilometers remained stable. Air travel witnessed the most significant rise among the modes, increasing by 20 billion kilometres over the decade
