The charts below show the performance of a bus company in terms of punctuality, both actual and target (what actually happened compared to what the company was trying to achieve), and the number of complaints from passengers. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisions where relevant
The given bar charts illustrate the performance of a bus company in terms of punctuality in two aspects: both in reality and in target. Moreover, they also present statistics about the number of complaints from passengers over a five-year period, starting from 1999.
Overall, it is observed that, in four out of five years, the company did not succeed in achieving punctuality. In contrast, the number of complaints per thousand passenger journeys showed an increasing trend.
In 2000, it is clear that the company had set a target that was 4 percent higher than the actual performance, while they only achieved 82 percent of services arriving on time. However, 2003 was the only year that stood out from the initial target by achieving 0.5 percent higher punctuality (initially the company aimed for 84.5 percent). In the years 1999, 2001, and 2002, the company performed less than they had anticipated, with punctuality falling roughly between 0.5 and 1 percent. During these years, they aimed for on-time arrivals of 85 to 86 percent.
On the other hand, the number of complaints seems to have increased over the four-year period. In 1999, fewer passengers experienced problems with the company's services, with only 65 thousand dissatisfied passenger journeys. However, 2003 recorded the highest number of complaints from passengers (120 thousand journeys). While we observe a decrease in complaints in 1999, 2000, 2002, and 2003, with a slight drop to around 90 thousand journeys in 2001 (compared to 100 thousand journeys in 2000), the statistics increased again by the following year, reaching around 110 thousand journeys in 2002.
In conclusion, the bus service seems to have worsened gradually over the years, with a slight increase in complaints each year.
