1 Purpose category of 'Other' and current status category of 'Gov't work or training scheme' have been excluded due to small sample sizes.
2 From 2007 onwards two new categories, 'Go home' and 'Just go for a walk', have been added. See the background note for more detail.
3 Table represents main mode of travel used to fulfill the purpose of the journey, e.g. someone may drive to a destination in order to go for a walk.
4 Sample size figures will not sum to the total due to non-response.
