Graph Writing # 49 - Transport used to travel to and from work in European cityWritten by IELTS MentorIELTS Academic Writing Task 1/ Graph Writing - Line Graph: » You should spend about 20 minutes on this task. The graph below shows the different modes of transport used to travel to and from work in one European city in 1960, 1980 and 2000.

Modes of transport used to travel to and from work in European city [Figure: Transportation used in Percentages. ] Sample Answer 1: The column graph represents information on travellers’ commuting preference to reach office and return home in a European city in three different years- 1960, 1980 and 2000. overall, the car gained its popularity and the number of people who used to walk gradually decreased. In 1960, almost 20 percent people used buses to and from workplaces and this percentage grew to almost 28% after 20 years. In 2000, bus users fell to less than 20%. On the contrary, in the case of private cars, the users were only about 7% in 1960, which was the lowest among the 4 categories, and this increased sharply in 1980 amounting 25%, and in 2000, more than 38%, making it the most used form of the transportation system. Besides, more than 27% people used bikes in 1960 and in 1980 the number decreased by 5% but in 2000 it dramatically fell to somewhat 7%. Finally, 35% people used to walk to go to work and to return from there. But this foot-walkers' number declined significantly in the 80s and in 2000 one out of ten office goers walked. To summarise, more people used to walk to travel to and from workplaces in 1960 but with the popularity of private cars, this ratio declined.
