Commuting modal share for England and Wales.

FYI:

Travelling to work in England and Wales

In the 2011 Census, driving was the most common form of commuting to work, used by 15.3 million people (57.5 per cent of the working population).

A further 1.4 million people (5.1 per cent) got to work as passengers in cars or vans, giving a vehicle occupancy rate of 1.09 persons per vehicle.

In 2011, 4.3 million people (16.4 per cent) travelled to work by public transport.

Of those using public transport, almost 2 million (7.3 per cent) commuted by bus or coach.

Some 2.8 million people (10.7 per cent) walked to work.

Trains were used by 1.4 million people (5.2 per cent), and a further 1.0 million people (3.9 per cent) commuted by light rail.

Almost 0.8 million (2.9 per cent) cycled to work in my region it's about 1.5% cycling
