The provided pie charts illustrate the changing rates of transportation methods used by individuals commuting to a university for work or educational purposes in 2004 and 2009.
Overall
, there was a discernible shift towards physical and public transportation modes,
while
car usage declined.
Initially
, the majority of
commuters
relied on cars to reach the university, but
this
mode of transport experienced a significant decrease over the five-year span.
In contrast
, the usage of buses experienced a substantial increase, nearly doubling from around a third to almost half of all
commuters
by 2009.
Similarly
, the proportions of individuals commuting by train and walking saw modest gains, each comprising approximately 4% and 6% of
commuters
respectively by 2009, which was approximately three times less than those who chose bicycles.
Conversely
, the proportion of individuals commuting by car decreased from slightly over half to just over a quarter of all
commuters
by 2009.
This
decline mirrors the growing preference for alternative modes of transportation
such
as public transit and cycling.
