Chapter Summary

Chapter Summary

1. Introduction

This chapter highlights some of the main findings from Scottish Transport Statistics, the accompanying summary tables provide longer term trends than those included in the individual chapters and include comparisons between Scotland and Great Britain. This publication covers data up until 2021-22.

2. The content of this chapter

This chapter covers the following topics:

3. Overview of travel in Scotland

4. Motor vehicles, traffic and road casualties

5. Public transport: bus, rail, air and ferry

6. Personal travel (e.g. driving, walking and cycling; travel to work and school)

7. Cross-border transport

8. Environment and emissions

3. Overview of travel in Scotland

Transport and travel habits in Scotland were profoundly affected by the Covid-19 pandemic, with restrictions on travel and daily activity in place for large parts of 2020. Comparisons with 2020 should therefore be treated with caution.

Public transport journeys rose by 95%, with 295 million public transport journeys made by either bus, rail, air, or ferry in 2021-22. This was up from the 151 million public transport journeys recorded in 2020-21.

Bus remained by far the most commonly used form of public transport in 2021-22, with 79% of public transport journeys made by bus, 16% by rail, 2% by air and 3% by ferry.

The number of bus journeys increased by 87% in 2021-22. This followed on from a generally declining trend which had seen bus passenger numbers drop by 21% in the ten years leading up to 2019-20.

Rail journeys, which had been steadily increasing in the years immediately prior to the pandemic, showed an increase of 225% over the year.

Air passengers, which had increased by 28% in the ten years prior to the pandemic, then fell by 0.6% between 2020 and 2021. Ferry passengers showed an increase of 56% over the year.

Road traffic also rose in 2021-22,. Overall road traffic increased by 15%, with car traffic also increasing by 15%. This followed a steadily increasing trend with road traffic increasing by 10% in the 10 years up to 2019.

During the pandemic cycling was one of the few transport types to demonstrate an increase in traffic. However, estimates now show that on-road cycling decreased by 27% over the past year.

	2016-17	2020-21	2021-22	Change over 1 year	Change over 5 years
Car Traffic (m/veh km)	35,484	27,032	31,063	14.9%	-12.5%
Pedal Cycle Traffic (on-road) (m/veh km)	288	597	435	-27.1%	51%
ScotRail Passengers (millions)	94.2	14.4	46.7	225%	-50.5%
Bus Passengers (millions)	392	125	234	87.2%	-40.3%
Air Passengers (millions)	26.9	7.039	7.0	-0.6%	-74.0%
Ferry Passengers (millions)	10.1	4.9	7.7	55.3%	-23.8%

4. Motor vehicles, traffic and road casualties

4.1 Motor vehicles

There were 3.0 million motor vehicles licensed in Scotland in 2021. This is the highest level recorded, having increased slightly from 2020.

The total number of vehicles registered in Scotland has been increasing steadily over the longer term. The current total is 14% higher than in 2011 and has more than tripled since 1964.

The number of new vehicle registrations increased by 13% in 2021. During the UK lockdown (which applied from 23 March 2020), vehicle dealerships and showrooms were required to close, removing the main method by which new vehicles are sold in Scotland. This was lifted in Scotland on the 29^th June. However local restrictions may have applied at later points in the year.

Whilst the significant decrease in 2020 will be linked to the pandemic, the number of new registrations had also decreased in the previous three years. This suggests that in recent years people have been buying fewer new vehicles, but retaining existing vehicles for longer.

There were fewer vehicles per person in Scotland than in Great Britain as a whole (56 compared to 60 per hundred population), as has consistently been the case in recent years.

4.2 The road network

There were 57,077 kilometres of public road in Scotland in 2021. Seven per cent of this was trunk road, which is managed centrally by Transport Scotland; the remaining roads are the responsibility of Local Authorities.

In Scotland, there was 10.4 kilometres of road per 1,000 people, compared to 6.1 km per 1,000 people in GB as a whole.

4.3 Road traffic

In 2021, 43.4 billion vehicle kilometres were travelled, an increase of 15% compared to the previous year, and 1% more than in 2011.

Prior to the pandemic, the volume of traffic on major roads (Motorways and A roads) had more than doubled since 1983, from an estimated 14,185 million vehicle kilometres to around 32,000 million vehicle kilometres in 2019.

Car and van users reported that 12% of journeys were delayed due to traffic congestion in 2021.

4.4 Road casualties

In 2020, 141 people were killed and 1,547 seriously injured in road accidents.

The total number of casualties on Scottish roads rose 1% between 2020 and 2021 and is at the second lowest level since records began over 50 years ago.

These latest figures will have been influenced by the reduction in traffic seen over the course of the pandemic. However, prior to the pandemic recorded casualties were declining. The total number of road casualties decreased by 62% over the last decade. Casualties of all severities have fallen over this period.

In Scotland in 2021, for every thousand people in the population, 0.32 were killed or seriously injured in road accidents, compared to 0.42 for Great Britain.

5. Public transport: bus, rail, air and ferry

5.1 Local bus and rail services

Bus

Bus travel in Scotland was profoundly affected by the Covid-19 pandemic, with restrictions on travel and daily activity in place for large parts of 2020. Comparisons with 2020 should therefore be treated with caution.

In 2021, there were 234 million bus passenger journeys, an increase of 87% on the previous year. Two fifths of all bus journeys in 2021 were made under the National Concessionary Travel scheme, a very similar proportion to 2020.

Prior to the pandemic, bus passenger journeys had been falling over the longer term. The figures almost halved between 1960 and 1975 and roughly halved again by 2019.

The distance covered by local bus services (expressed in terms of 'vehicle kilometres') can be seen as a measure of bus service provision. Although this rose in 2021 by 13%, this was a much smaller rise than the increase in passenger numbers (87%).

Rail

Rail travel in Scotland was profoundly affected by the Covid-19 pandemic, with restrictions on travel and daily activity in place for large parts of 2020. Comparisons with 2020 should therefore be treated with caution.

There were 46.7 million ScotRail passenger journeys in 2021-22, an increase of 225% from 2020-21.

Prior to the pandemic, rail patronage had been rising steadily and was 25% higher in 2019-20 compared to 2009-10.

Similar to bus services, the distance covered by scheduled trains in Scotland did rise by 8% in 2021-22. However this was not to the same scale as the increase in passenger numbers (225%).

5.2 Air and ferry passengers

Note: in the above figure, 'selected services' refers to those services for which data is available back to 1975 – Caledonian MacBrayne, P&O Scottish Ferries, Northlink Orkney and Shetland Ferries and Orkney Ferries.

Air

There were 7 million air terminal passenger numbers in 2021, down 0.5% compared to the previous year, and 68% lower than 2011. Prior to the pandemic, air passenger numbers had been increasing over time, with a 28% increase in the ten years up to 2019.

In 2021, 9% of all terminal passenger traffic was from within Scotland, 51% was to or from other parts of the UK, 33% was between Scotland and mainland Europe.

Ferry

In 2021, 7.7 million passengers travelled by ferry (including traffic within Scotland and to and from Northern Ireland), a 55% increase on the previous year.

Across all ferry routes, 3 million vehicles were carried in 2021 (including traffic between Scotland and Northern Ireland and within Scotland), a 46% increase on the previous year.

6. Personal travel (e.g. driving, walking and cycling; travel to work and school)

In 2021, 78% of people aged 17 or over had a full driving licence. The proportion of men aged 17+ holding a licence was higher than women (80% compared to 75%).

34% of people drove every day in 2021, with around 80% of households having access to at least one car.

Forty per cent of employed people reported that they currently worked from home. Of those that travelled to work in 2021, 27% of journeys to work were by public or active travel.

Seventy per cent of people were either very or fairly satisfied with public transport in 2021.

7. Cross-border transport

As with transport more generally, cross-border transport was significantly affected by the Coronavirus pandemic. In 2021, there were 5 million air and ferry passenger journeys to other parts of the UK, an increase of 25% since 2020. The majority of these journeys were made by air (3.6 million).

The most recently available figures for cross-border rail journeys are for 2020 and cover the pandemic period. These show 1.4 million passenger journeys were made to other parts of the UK in 2020.

In 2021, 2.4 million passenger journeys were made to and from other countries by air, a decrease of 76% since 2011.

8. Environment and emissions

The most recently available figures for transport emissions relate to 2020.

Transport accounted for 25.9% of Scotland's total greenhouse gas emissions in 2020.

Scotland's transport emissions in 2020 were 25.9% lower than in 2019, and 30.6% lower than in 1990.

Over the longer term, newly registered cars have become more efficient in terms of carbon dioxide emissions, with average CO₂ emissions in Scotland for new car registrations falling by 10% over the last ten years. However, although average CO₂ emissions for newly registered cars have increased by 2% in each year between 2017 and 2020 they did fall by 3% between 2020 and 2021

At the end of 2021, ultra-low emission vehicles (ULEVs) accounted for 1.4% of vehicles licensed in Scotland.

DfT has revised the figures for the light goods and goods body types back to 2001. DfT does not have the underlying data to revise earlier years' figures.

note 2

Financial years

note 3

The DfT have revised figures from 2004/05 onwards as a result of methodological improvements. Figures prior to this period are not directly comparable. See Chapter 2 for more detail. Figures from 2006 include Government support for buses which is not available for the two previous years. Pasenger numbers for 2016 to 2021 have been revised. Vehicle Kms for 2014 to 2021 have been revised.

note 4

Following a methodology change from paper to online data collection, it has been concluded that road goods data before and after July to September 2021 (quarter 3) should not be compared. Data is presented as a 12 month figure for the period ending June 2022. For more details on the methodology change and results from an investigation, please see here.

note 5

The estimated amounts of crude oil and products carried by pipelines over 50km in length. 2012 figures are provisional.

note 6

ScotRail introduced a new methodology which better estimates Strathclyde Zonecard journeys from 2009/10. Figures from 2003/04 onwards present the impact of this on previously reported data to provide a more meaningful year on year comparison. Note that this has no impact on actual journeys undertaken.

note 7

The Office of Rail and Road (ORR) produce total passenger figures. These are not adjusted to reflect ScotRail's revised methdology and are therefore not comparable with ScotRail figures. There is a series break between 2007-08 and 2008-09 due to a change in the methodology. From 2008-09 estimates of PTE travel (zone cards) are included.

note 8

Services to Europe, Northern Ireland and within Scotland (Previous versions of STS only included services where data is available back to 1975, this can still be found in Table H1). Figures for passenger numbers on the Corran ferry service in 2013, 2014 and 2015 have not been included in the total for Scotland as the figures are new estimates and considered as 'data under development'.

note 9

note 10

Totals have been revised in 2012 to include slip roads on Trunk A roads which had previously excluded. See Road Network chapter for more information.

note 11

Changes in the layout of the M74/M77/M8 during 2012 are likely to have affected the traffic data for motorways.

note 12

Due to changes in the the way casualty severities are recorded, killed/serious figures prior to 2004 are not comparable with later years.

note 13

Changes in the layout of the M74/M77/M8 during 2012 are likely to have affected the traffic data for motorways.

note 14

Estimates for the period since 2010 have been revised to take into account the minor road benchmarking exercise. Further details available at: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/road-traffic-statistics-minor-road-benchmarking

note 15

The figures from 2018 onwards are not comparable with previous figures, as they are collected in a different way.

note 23

Figures for 2017 Travel to school by car or van have been revised from 25.5.

note 24

From 2012 Q4 the question was changed to ask about access to cars / vans instead of just cars.

note 25

Data published in 2015 erroneously included a value of 12.5 because of the exclusion of vans; this table contains the revised data.

note 26

England, Wales or Northern Ireland - for the purposes of this table, UK offshore is not counted as another part of the UK.

note 27

Scotland / Northern Ireland ferries

note 28

Figures for 1999 and earlier years are available on the website. They are approximate as they include an element of estimation.

note 29

The Rosyth/Zeebrugge service started in May 2002, there was a drop in the frequency of service from November 2005 and the passenger service ceased in December 2010. Figures for services between Lerwick and other countries are available from 1998.

note 30

Freight lifted by UK HGVs only - does not include freight carried by other HGVs or by other types of vehicle (such as light goods vehicles). The figures for 2004 onwards are not directly comparable with earlier years, due to changes to the survey's methodology & processing.

note 31

The Rail figures for 'outwith UK' include freight taken to Scottish, English or Welsh ports for export.

note 32

Figures relate only to exports/imports from major ports only. Note these have increased over the years.

note 33

The Rail figures for 'outwith UK' include freight imported at an English or Welsh port, then brought into Scotland by rail.

note 34

Figures are for combined years e.g. 2011 covers 2011/12.

note 35

DfT revised its methodlogy from 2004, causing a break in the series. Pasenger numbers for 2016 to 2021 have been revised.

note 36

The GB figures relate to motor vehicle traffic only, and therefore exclude a small amount of pedal cycle traffic. Estimates for the period since 2000 have been revised following the minor road review. Further details are available in the technical report, available at: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/road-traffic-statistics-guidance

note 37

Financial years

note 38

Total passenger figures are produced by the ORR and have not been adjusted to reflect ScotRail's revised zonecard methdology.

note 39

Figures are based on the origin and destination of trips and do not count stages of these trips separately.

note 40

The estimated amounts of crude oil and products carried by pipelines over 50km in length. 2012 figures are provisional.

note 41

These figures are for freight lifted by Heavy Goods Vehicles. The GB figures are for freight transported within GB; the Scottish figures include small amounts of freight destined for Northern Ireland and outside the UK.

note 42

Domestic freight estimates for 2006 to 2009 were revised on 27 October 2011.

note 43

Figures for 2008-09 onwards have been revised due to an error in the LENNON calculation of journeys between Edinburgh and Glasgow.

note 44

Figures are based on the origin and destination of trips and do not count stages of these trips separately

note 45

Due to changes in the the way casualty severities are recorded, killed/serious figures prior to 2004 are not comparable with later years.

note 46

The figures from 2018 onwards are not comparable with previous figures, as they are collected in a different way.

note 47

The figures for Car and Air are for calendar years; latterly, the figures for Bus and Rail are for the financial years which start in the specified calendar years (eg the 1996 figures are for 1996-97)

note 48

Pre-1975, the figures are the totals of passenger journeys for the Scottish Bus Group and the four city corporations. Therefore, they include any non-stage (non-local) services run by these operators, and exclude other operators' stage (local) services. Glasgow Corporation's figures may have included passenger journeys on trolley buses and the Glasgow Underground. Figures from 2004 onwards have been subject to revision due to methodological improvements.

note 49

Figures from 1995 onwards were revised by ORR in 2013 due to improvements to methodology. There is a series break between 2007-08 and 2008-09 due to a change in the methodology. From 2008-09 estimates of PTE travel (zone cards) are included. Figures in 2001-02 and 2002-03 were affected by industrial action.

note 50

This grouping was used in STS until 2012 and includes those routes for which figures are available back to 1973: Caledonian MacBrayne, P&O Scottish Ferries / NorthLink Orkney and Shetland Ferries, and Orkney Ferries. The figures from 1995 are affected by the reduction in traffic caused by the withdrawal of the Kyle-Kyleakin service when the Skye Bridge opened in October 1995.

note 51

All ferry routes within Scotland, between Scotland and Northern Ireland and between Scotland and Europe, for which passenger data is availabe (see chapter 9 for more detail)

note 52

Due to changes in the survey in response to covid-19, 2020 data is not directly comparable with previous years, so there is a break in the time series between 2019 and 2021

note 53

The figures for 'road', 'rail', 'coastwise shipping' and 'inland waterways' are the total amounts lifted in Scotland. The category of 'coastal shipping' is shown for historical reasons. It is defined in a different way: the 'coastal shipping' figure is the total lifted in Scotland plus the total lifted elsewhere in the UK which is delivered in Scotland. The 'pipeline' figure is the estimated amount of crude oil carried by on-shore pipelines which are over 50km in length. This table does not show one port traffic to / from oil rigs and the sea bed.

note 54

The figures are all for calendar years except for the figures for 'rail' from 1985, which are for the financial years which start in the specified calendar years (e.g. the rail figures for 1997 are for 1997-98).

note 55

The estimated amounts of crude oil and products carried by pipelines over 50km in length. 2012 figures are provisional.

note 56

A new system for collecting port statistics was introduced in 2000. Data prior to that are on a different basis.

note 57

Changes to the methodology for collecting road freight data mean that previous figures are not comparable.

note 58

Domestic freight estimates for 2006 to 2009 were revised on 27 October 2011

note 59

Domestic freight estimates from 2011 to 2016 were revised in 2018

note 60

The figures from 2018 onwards are not comparable with previous figures, as they are collected in a different way.

note 61

The figures for 'road', 'rail', 'coastwise shipping' and 'inland waterways' relate to freight lifted in Scotland;for 'pipeline' it is the estimated tonne-kilometres for crude oil carried by on-shore pipelines which are over 50km in length. This table does not show the tonne-kilometres for one port traffic to / from oil rigs and the sea bed or for coastal shipping (as defined in part [a] of this table).

note 62

The figures are all for calendar years except for the figures for rail which are for the financial years which start in the specified calendar years

note 64

A new system for collecting port statistics was introduced in 2000. Data prior to that are on a different basis.

note 65

Changes to the methodology for collecting road freight data mean that previous figures are not comparable.

note 66

Pipeline figures for 2012 are provisional.

note 67

Revisions made to rail freight from 2001 onwards due to an error in the formula for calculating the figures

note 68

Domestic freight estimates from 2011 to 2016 were revised in 2018

note 69

The increase in motorway traffic in 2012 is the result of new motorway opening. More detail can be found in the road network chapter.

note 70

Estimates for minor roads for the period since 2000 have been revised to take into account the minor road benchmarking exercise. Further details available at: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/road-traffic-estimates-in-great-britain-2021/minor-road-traffic-estimates-review-technical-report

note 71

The figures for vehicles licensed for 1974 to 1978 are on different bases, due to the effect on the annual 'census' of the transfer of licensing records from local offices to the then DVLC

note 72

For years up to 1992 estimates are taken from the DVLA annual vehicle census, from 1993 onwards estimates are taken from the Vehicle Information Database and are not consistent with previous years. The VID figure for 1992 was 1,840,000 compared with the DVLA figure of 1,884,000.

note 73

New registration results to 1994 are taken from geographical analysis provided by DVLA. Results for 1995 onwards are estimated using post town area data. The vehicle taxation system was subject to major revisions from July 1995.

note 74

DfT has revised the figures for the light goods and goods body types back to 2001. DfT does not have the underlying data to revise earlier years' figures.

NB: breaks exist in the series due to changes in the collection method. In 1978 collection moved from local taxation offices to the DVLA (annual vehicle census) while figures from 1993 onwards originate from the DfT Vehicle Information Database.

NB: a break in the series exists in 1994. Results prior to this are taken from DVLA geographical analysis. Results for 1995 onwards are estimated using post town area data.

NB: breaks in the series exist as the DfT revised its method of estimating traffic volumes from 1993. Estimates of traffic on minor roads are not available prior to 1993.

NB: Due to methodological improvements bus figures are not strictly comparable ( prior to 1999/00 and from 2004/05 onwards).

NB: First ScotRail took over the franchise in 2003, therefore earlier do not exist. Rail figures prior to 1990/91 were provided by British Rail. Rail figures up to 1990/91 were provided by British Rail, but now provided by the Office of Rail Regulation. The Skye bridge opened in 1995 and may impact on ferry patronage figures.

NB: breaks appear in the series due to changes in the survey methodology and processing.

NB: breaks appear in the series due to changes in the survey methodology and processing. The increase in pipeline figures between 1989 and 1990 is believed to be due to a change in co
