National Travel Survey respondents keep a travel diary of their trips within Great Britain over a seven day period. Travel details provided by respondents include trip purpose, method of travel, time of day and trip length. The households also provided personal information, such as their age, gender, working status and driving licence holding, and details of the cars available for their use. The National Travel Survey is carried out in order to provide a better understanding of the use of transport facilities made by different sectors of the population, and trends in these patterns of demand.

The State of the Environment report presents data on the indicators that monitor progress against the Welsh Government's Environment Strategy. The full set of data, analysis, and notes on all of the indicators are available here through our StatsWales website. On StatsWales, the indicators are presented in a series of online reports which are also linked to data tables which users can then manipulate and/or download.
The statistics come from a range of sources in Wales and across the UK, which are updated at different times and intervals. The StatsWales reports will be updated twice a year in July and December and these updates will be highlighted through a pre-announced headline statistics published on our website. A statistical bulletin showing the status of each indicator will be produced annually in July to provide a snapshot of progess across all the indicators.
The contribution of data and information by organisations which monitor the environment is gratefully acknowledged. Although most indicators are currently measured, some further work is planned to develop the other indicators and in some cases to identify more appropriate indicators, as indicated in the StatsWales reports.
The symbol '-' is used where the data is less than half the final digit shown. This may or may not be a real zero.
Unless otherwise stated, the data in these tables and indicator reports are classed as National Statistics.
