Flattening of public transport

Overall, there was no change in public transport from third quarter 2008 to third quarter 2009. Transportation by rail had a tiny growth of about 400 000 passengers, while the number of passengers by boat decreased by approximately the same figure.

A relatively long period of growth seamed to end in the third quarter of 2009. The number of passengers by boat decreased by 17 per cent, but this did not lead to reduced ticket revenues. A passenger growth by rail of 1 per cent resulted in a 9 per cent increase in ticket revenues. Overall, the ticket revenues rose by 4 per cent.

Difficult to compare over time

Both the boat and the bus sector have faced large changes in structure, technology and types of contracts during the last years. These changes make it difficult to compare numbers over time.

The figures are preliminary and might be adjusted comparing to new annual survey for 2009.
