The bar graph illustrates how the number of kilometers traveled by the British people varied across five distinct transportations namely bicycle, motorbike, airplane, bus and railway between 1990 and 2000.
Overall, it is obvious that the total journey distances witnessed a significant increase during the 10-year period. Additionally, the UK inhabitants tended to use bus and railway and the volumes of kilometers by these two means of transport also increased from 1990 to 2000, while the opposite were true for both bicycle and motorbike.
In 1990, the total passenger kilometers was about 100 billion, which increased to nearly 120 billion kilometers in 2000. The figure for buses was ranked the highest in 1990 with roughly 45 billion kilometers, followed by rail travel at about 40 billion. After 10 years, both these means of transport observed remarkable growth and had the same number of passenger kilometers with about approximately 50 billion. Although the figure for air travel stood the lowest in 1990 with only 3 billion kilometers, it rose by 6 billion kilometers in 2000 and just behind the two transports bus and rail.
In contrast, the amount of passenger kilometers by motorbike was about 7 billion in 1990, but it dropped slightly to 4 billion after 10 years. Simultaneously, the figure for bicycle travel also had a marginal decline of about 4 to 2 billion during the 10-year period, respectively.
