The bar chart compares the average number of daily trips made by people in a European city using six different means of transport in 1985 and 2015.
Overall, buses were the most popular means of transport in both years, although their usage declined significantly. Meanwhile, walking, cycling and car trips became more common over the period. Trains remained the least used option, while the number of subway journeys increased slightly.
In 1985, buses were the dominant mode of transport, with about 60,000 daily trips, but this figure dropped markedly to around 40,000 in 2015. By contrast, train travel accounted for only around 5,000 trips in both years, showing little change.
In terms of rising figures, the number of subway journeys grew from approximately 15,000 to 20,000. Similarly, car trips rose moderately from 30,000 to about 35,000. More significant growth was seen in bicycle use, which nearly tripled from just 7,000 to 20,000, and in walking, which increased from 25,000 to roughly 40,000, making it as popular as bus travel by 2015.
