The table below gives information about changes in modes of travel in England between 1985 and 2000.

Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The table compares average miles that people in England travelled between 1985 and 2000, by eight modes of travel.

At first glance, in 2000, people in England travelled more than in 1985. But in both years, using car, local bus and train is the most preferred. Walking, riding a bicycle, travelling by long distance bus or taxi, on the other hand, is less use.

For details, in 1985, people travelled 3199 miles by car. It jumped by 4806 miles in 2000. There was a noticeable decrease in local public transportation where it dropped from 429 miles in 1985 to 274 miles in 2000. This made train become the second popular mean of transportation in 2000, not local bus like before. Despite the reduction in average distance in miles, local bus was still one of the most favorite transportation English people use in the last year of 20th century.

The number of miles people walking decreased between two years (255 miles in 1985 and 237 miles in 2000). The same situation occured with other non-motorized vehicle such as bicycle. Although people travelled less miles by long distance bus and taxi, these two modes had a significant growth during the time of 1985 and 2000. The number of miles people travelled by long distance bus increased more than two times. It was more than 3 times with taxi.

Besides, the number of miles people spent on other mode of travel also went up, from 450 miles in 1985 to 585 miles in 2000.
