The graphs below show the number of public transit passengers from 1989 to 2009 and bus and tram passenger numbers between 2000 and 2009 in Melbourne.
The
first
line graph indicates public transportation user numbers
between 1989 and 2009 and the second one shows the number of bus and tram
passengers
from 2000 to 2008 in Melbourne.
According to
the first
graph, it is clear that
the number of public transit passengers
went up continuously over the 20-year period. About 290 million
people in Melbourne consistently used public transport for the first
five years and then
public transport passenger numbers
gradually grew. Since 2004, it has seen a rapid increase to nearly 500 million
.
In the second graph, it is apparent that even though bus and tram
passenger numbers
reached over 200 million
in the final year in Melbourne, their patterns of change were significantly different. The number of bus passengers
remained stable for the first
three years, however
, it constantly ascended until 2008 while
that of tram
passengers
fluctuated several times. Tram
user numbers
went up slightly before falling in 2004. After that, they sharply soared by over 70 million
between 2007 and 2008.Submitted by a46615883 on
