The pie charts compare the popularity of different transport methods in Cambridge in 2008 and 2018.
Overall, the most noticeable change was the switching of the interest from automobiles to walking and cycling.
In 2008, only 11% of people were interested in going on foot, whereas, in 2018, a quarter of the population preferred walking. Similarly, cycling was preferred by only just below one-fifth of the population in 2008; however, this proportion rose to just below a third in 2018. Hence, walking and cycling altogether accounted for more than half of the population’s interest in 2018.
In contrast, the private car use in Cambridge reduced by more than half over the ten years, from 42% to 20%. Furthermore, the interest in public transport saw a slight reduction from 30% to 25%, which was similar to the interest in walking; therefore, half of the population went place to place by bus and on foot in 2018.
