Description
Data
Bar Chart
Pie Chart

This dataset provides Census 2021 estimates that classify usual residents aged 16 years and over in employment the week before the census in England and Wales by their method used to travel to work (2001 specification). The estimates are as at Census Day, 21 March 2021.

Summary

A person's place of work and their method of travel to work. This is the 2001 method of producing travel to work variables.

"Work mainly from home" applies to someone who indicated their place of work as their home address and travelled to work by driving a car or van, for example visiting clients.

Quality Statement

As Census 2021 was during a unique period of rapid change, take care when using this data for planning purposes.
Read more in our Travel to work quality information for Census 2021 methodology.

Method of travel to workplace: Total: All usual residents aged 16 years and over in employment the week before the census	151,772
Work mainly at or from home	62,355
Underground, metro, light rail, tram	14,352
Train	13,191
Bus, minibus or coach	16,170
Taxi	664
Motorcycle, scooter or moped	914
Driving a car or van	29,722
Passenger in a car or van	2,241
Bicycle	2,961
On foot	7,435
Other method of travel to work	1,767

These values are calculated by adding up the values for census output areas contained within Greenwich. They may, therefore, be slightly inaccurate due to administrative boundaries not precisely aligning with census boundaries.
