The graph shows the percentage of travelers in a European city who used bus, car, bike and foot to commute to and from work in the years 1950, 1970 and 1990.
The amount of people using cars grew considerably, rising from just over 5% in 1950 to 25% in 1970, and then climbing to almost 40% by 1990.
However, the amount of people using bikes decreased. Over 25% of commuters cycled in 1950, but this had fallen to less than 10% by 1990. Similarly, the amount of people who walked to work fell from more than a third in 1950 to about 10% in 1990.
The amount of people using buses initially rose in 1970 to about 30%, but had dropped to about 17% by 1990.
The graph indicates the growing use of cars for commuting and the corresponding fall in the popularity of other modes of transport since 1950.
