1 A stage is defined as a part of a journey involving one form of transport. A journey will have one or more stages (e.g. a bus then a train) counts as one bus stage and one train stage. Short walks between modes of transport are not included.
2 The questionnaire was changed in 2012 and as a result more walking journeys are recorded so there is a break in the time series between 2011 and 2012.
3 Previously, 2015 data in the 'other' category did not include tram journeys. The data has now been revised to include tram journeys, changing this value from 0.7 to 0.8.
