The first line
graph
given illustrates the amount of
passengers
commuting by train in Sydney. The second
graph
given shows the proportion of
trains
running on
time
.
Overall
, in the first
graph
, it is obvious that the number of train
passengers
increased over the period from 1995 to 2004.
While
2001 had the most
passengers
in the year, the opposite will be true for 1995. In the second
graph
, we can easily see that the percentage of
trains
running on
time
has rapidly decreased over
time
. The highest percentage of
trains
running on
time
appeared in 1999. In 1995, Sydney had approximately 250 million
passengers
who commuted by train which is the least in 9 years.
However
, there was a significant rise in the number of
passengers
, nearly 300 million people in 2001. In 1999, there was about 93% of
trains
running on
time
in Sydney. Unfortunately, a dramatic drop happened, which turned the proportion of running on-
time
trains
to just roughly 72% in 2004.
