1 Prior to 2007 only journeys over ΒΌ mile or 5 minutes on foot were recorded. Since 2007 all journeys are recorded. This creates a distcontinuity in the time series between 2006 and 2007.
2 Note that 1km = 0.6 miles
3 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.
