The given bar chart depicts the length of distance commuted by passengers on five means of transportation, namely: bicycle, motorbike, air, bus and rail in the United Kingdom in a 10-year period starting from 1990.
As clearly seen, buses and rails were two primary ways to travel for citizens, while other methods occupied a minimal number of the length travelled in the UK over 10 given years. Additionally, there was a tendency of people travelling more in 2000 compared to 10 years ago.
In greater detail, bicycles and motorbikes shared a slight downward tendency in the distance travelled by passengers using these two methods with around 6 billion kilometers in 2000. Additionally, each of them occupied only a twentieth of the total distance commuted by passengers in 2000. Besides, albeit minimal upward trend in the distance over 10 years, air only took a twentieth of the total distance travelled.
Moreover, an increase was observed in the bus sector: starting at around 40 billion kilometers in 1990, rising to approximately 45 billion kilometers in 2000 and remaining one of the most popular means of transportation in the UK. The same trend occurred with the trail sector, ending at 45 billion kilometers in 2000.
Finally, throughout the ten-year period, there was a moderate rise in the total distance travelled by passengers in the UK, from 110 billion kilometers to nearly 120 kilometers.
