The first chart shows the overall distance commuted and how much time it took, while the second one compares the usage of different modes of travel among people.
In general, the more distance people travel, the more time it took them to reach the destination. It can also be seen that people travelled more miles in 2005, with 2015 being the year when people travelled the least. As for the means of traveling, the figures for each did not experience significant changes in use across the years.
Focusing on travel over time, the length of distance travelled showed an increasing trend from 1995 to 2005, followed by a sharp decline in the later years. In 1995, people travelled around 6730 miles, which took 393 hours. As years passed, the overall distance and time taken increased, reaching 7150 miles and 389 hours in 2015. However, the figures dropped dramatically, with people spending 370 hours to commute 6680 miles. After 5 years, people travelled slightly less, accounting for approximately 6620 miles and 667 hours.
Regarding the modes of travel, they showed relatively similar commuting patterns each year. Starting at 28% in 1995, the proportion of people who preferred walking and cycling gradually decreased, reaching 24% in 2015. Meanwhile, other means of travel increased over time, with other private transport and public transport constituting 62% and 9%, respectively, which then, steadily went to 65% and 11%, in turn.
