The chart below shows the number of trips made by children in one country in 1990 and 2010 to travel to and from school using different modes of transport. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The graph demonstrates information about the total amount of trip percentage conducted by children aged 5 -12 from and to educational institutions using five means of transportation – car, bike, walking, bus, and a combination of the

last

two – in 1990 and 2010.

Overall

, notable fluctuations in the transportation types can be observed over

this
