Guidance on individual chapters and supporting notes and definitions.

As of December 2022, TSGB now covers primarily cross-modal information. As a result, there are fewer tables and chapters in the release. Below are the department’s statistical collections that are no longer published with TSGB, but can still be found on the DfT website, and their accompanying notes and definitions. The Transport Statistics Finder can also be used to locate these tables, either by table name or code.
