Abstract

The "National Transportation Statistics" Annual Report is a historical compendium of selected national transportation, and transportation-related statistics from a wide variety of government and private sources. The data illustrate transportation activity for the major transportation modes; air, automobile, bus, truck, local transit, rail, water, and pipeline. Basic descriptors such as operating revenues/expenses, number of vehicles and employees, vehicle- and passenger-miles, and passenger and freight operations, are included. Transportation trends in performance, safety, and motor vehicle sales, production and costs are also presented. Safety information compares data for transportation accidents, fatalities , and injuries for all modes of transportation as well as multimodal transportation of hazardous materials. These data were formerly published in the RSPA/Volpe Center's "Transportation Safety Information Report". Supplementary information include data on transportation and the economy, energy consumption, energy intensiveness, energy transport, and energy supply and demand. Additionally, selected statistics from the FHWA's Nationwide Personal Transportation Survey (NPTS) are also illustrated. In this edition, the data cover the period 1960 through 1991/1992, and in some instances, extend back to 1955.
