1. Distances are calculated as a straight line between the start and end points of each stage / journey. A version of this table using the road network distance is included in Annex A of the web tables. More details on the differences between the straight line and road network distance can be found in TATIS Appendix A. br /> 2 Prior to 2007 only journeys over 1/4 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.
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.
