Scottish Household Survey Annual Report 2007 Web Tables - Transport
An efficient transport system is essential to Scotland's economy, communities, environment, health and general well being. Transport is important to everybody in Scotland: whether it be through reaching workplaces or schools, allowing access to shops or services, visiting friends and family, enjoying leisure services or increasing tourism.
Given its cross-cutting importance, improving transport and transport choices in Scotland will play a part in achieving three of the Government's five strategic objectives: Enable businesses and people to increase their wealth and more people to share fairly in that wealth; Help local communities to flourish, becoming stronger, safer places to live, offering improved opportunities and a better quality of life; Improve Scotland's natural and built environment and the sustainable use and enjoyment of it.
The Scottish Household Survey is used specifically to monitor two national indicators associated with these objectives, measuring work travel choice (using the main survey) and congestion (using the travel diary, which is not presented in this report). The SHS also provides a wealth of other transport-related information that can be used to understand travel patterns and choices across Scotland as well as monitoring progress on the more detailed National Transport Strategy.
