      <title>Bus and light rail statistics GB - Q2 2009</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/909086</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Bus and light rail statistics for Great Britain for the second quarter of2009, seasonally adjusted, showed that: the number of bus and light rail journeys in England for the year 2008/09 is provisionally estimated to have been 22.7% higher than in 2000/01 at nearly 4.9 billion. This is an increase of 3.1% from 2007/08. Over the same year, passenger journeys increased by 3.1% in London and 3.2% in Metropolitan and non-Metropolitan areas. In Scotland and Wales, bus and light rail patronage remained largely unchanged between 2007/08 and 2008/09. The index number (base year 2000/01=100) for bus and light rail journeys in England in the Spring quarter of 2009/10 was 122.2, up by 0.3% from the previous quarter. Bus and light rail journeys in England were down by 0.7% compared to the same quarter a year earlier.  Bus and light rail patronage in Scotland and Wales were down by 2.4 per cent in the Spring quarter of 2009/10 compared to the previous quarter. In Spring 2009, the average score for overall satisfaction in England was 82 out of 100, the same as the previous quarter's rating. Satisfaction with reliability in England also remained the same as in the Spring quarterat 72. The aspects of their bus journey with which passengers were the least satisfied were reliability and value for money. They were most satisfied with safety and security, and staff service/comfort.

      <title>Road freight statistics 2008</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/909087</link>
      <description><![CDATA[National Statistics on the activity of heavy goods vehicles (over 3.5 tonnes gross weight) during 2008, including foreign vehicle activity in the UK, are provided. The main findings include: Freight moved by GB-registeredheavy goods vehicles within Great Britain decreased by 6% between 2007 and 2008, from 161 billion tonne kilometres to 152 billion tonne kilometres.In the same period, Gross Domestic Product rose by 1%. Articulated vehicles over 33 tonnes gross weight continue to account for an increasing shareof all goods moved: 74% of total tonne kilometres in 2008, compared with 66% in 1998. Half of all goods were lifted on a trip of 50 kilometres or less in 2008, whilst 4% of goods lifted were carried more than 300 kilometres. The average length of haul in 2008 was 87 kilometres. The total numberof road goods vehicles of all nationalities travelling to mainland Europein 2008 was 2,768 thousand, 5% less than in 2007 but 38% more than in 1998. Powered vehicles accounted for 2,060 thousand of this total, a decreaseof 3% since 2007 but a 62% increase since 1998.  The remaining vehicles were unaccompanied trailers; 709 thousand travelled to mainland Europe in 2008, an 8% decrease since 2007 and a 4% decrease since 1998. In 2008, vansrepresented 9.5% of all licensed vehicles in Great Britain and accounted for 13.4% of road traffic. A 2008 survey of van activity showed that vans owned by businesses account for 61% of the registered van fleet in England. 28% of vans are privately owned and 11% are owned by leasing companies. 53% of the distance travelled by vans is primarily for the 'carriage of equipment' and 26% is for the 'delivery / collection of goods'. The number of goods vehicle operators has fallen over the last 10 years from 111 thousand in 1998/99 to 95 thousand in 2008/09. Greenhouse gas emissions from road freight transport in the UK rose by 4% between 1997 and 2007. Between 1998 and 2008 there was a 48% reduction in the number of people killed or seriously injured in reported personal injury accidents involving at least one HGV.

      <title>Public transport statistics bulletin GB - 2008 edition supplement - blue badge statistics</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/884538</link>
      <description><![CDATA[The number of blue badges on issue has increased by 1 per cent from March 2007 to March 2008. In 2008 there were 46 blue badges on issue per 1000 people, compared to 35 blue badges per 1000 people in 1998. Blue badges issued at local authority discretion remained unchanged, while blue badges issued automatically have increased by 3 per cent from March 2007 to March 2008. At March 2008, 62 per cent of all blue badges were on issue at local authority discretion. The number of blue badges on issue to institutions fell by 7 per cent, over the March 2007 to March 2008 period, reflecting the gradual decline in the last ten years. The North West has more blue badges per head of population with 58 blue badges on issue per 1000 people, compared to the national average of 46 blue badges per 1000 people. London issues the fewest blue badges per head with 29 blue badges per 1000 people.]]></description>

      <title>Road conditions in England - 2007</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/869120</link>
      <description><![CDATA[This bulletin provides a picture of the state of roads in England in 2007, using various data sources to measure conditions on both local and trunk roads: a visual survey of surface defects on unclassified local roads, footways, kerbs and verges; a machine based survey of the surface condition of trunk roads, i.e. motorways and all purpose trunk roads; a machine based skidding resistance survey of the surface condition of major roads, i.e. trunk roads and principal roads; and performance indicators for the surface condition of each Local Authority's local road network. Key results for England are: for the classified road network, there were more local authorities showing year on year improvements than there were showing declines between 2005-06 and 2006-07. However after seven years of improvement, there was a slight deterioration in the condition of unclassified roads in built-up areas in 2007, and no change in the condition of unclassified roads in non built-up areas.

      <title>National Travel Survey: 2005</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/792767</link>
      <description><![CDATA[The 2005 National Travel Survey (NTS) is the latest in a series of household surveys designed to provide a databank of personal travel information for Great Britain. It is part of a continuous survey that began in July 1988, following ad hoc surveys since the mid-1960s. The survey is designed to identify long-term trends and is not suitable for monitoring short-term trends. This bulletin presents 2005 data from the NTS. It updates tables that appeared in the bulletins for 2002, 2003 and 2004. NTS respondents keep a travel diary for seven days of their trips within Great Britain. Travel details provided by respondents include trip purpose, method of travel, time of day and trip length. The households also provided personal information, such as their age, gender, working status, and driving licence holding, and details of the cars available for their use. In order to minimise the burden of completing the diaries respondents only include walks of under one mile on the seventh day, but all tables in this publication include data on short walks (over 50 yards) grossed up for the full seven day period.]]></description>

      <title>National Road Maintenance Condition Survey: 2005</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/782860</link>
      <description><![CDATA[This publication reports on the condition of public roads, footways, kerbs and verges in England and Wales. Results are derived from a range of surveys of surface condition and structural condition which are collectively referred to as the National Road Maintenance Condition Survey (NRMCS). The report this year also includes Scottish local authority performance indicators. Information presented in this publication includes: Chapter 2 - key statistics from the 2005 NRMCS;  Chapter 3 - results from visual condition surveys in 1984 to 2005. These record the visible physical condition of the road network (excluding motorways and all-purpose trunk roads) and include information on footways, verges and kerbs. They do not measure the requirement for road maintenance; Chapter 4 - results derived from surveys of the structural condition of motorways, all purpose trunk roads and principal roads; Chapter 5 - results from 2004-05 local performance indicators, in England and Scotland, relating to the percentage of the local road network for which further investigation should be considered; Chapter 6 - results from a survey of wet road skidding resistance; Chapter 7 - results from the Highways Agency’s machine based survey of the surface condition of the trunk road network; Chapter 8 - reports on factors which affect road conditions. It includes results from a survey to measure the amount of maintenance undertaken, by type of treatment, on principal and non-principal roads in England and Wales in 2004-05. This chapter also includes information on road maintenance expenditure and motor traffic volumes; and Annexes 1 to 7 - details of methodologies and technical terms.]]></description>
