Details

Historically, the year of publication was included in the report title in line with past naming conventions. From 2025 onwards, report titles will instead reference the data year they cover, rather than the year they are published.

Following on from the announcement made on 12 December 2024, to ensure consistency, the titles of previous publications have been updated to reflect this new approach.

Due to this, as of April 2025, the “Transport and environment statistics: 2022” report has been renamed to “Transport and environment statistics: 2022 (2020 data)”.

Statistics on a range of transport and environment topics including greenhouse gases and pollutants emitted by transport. Includes experimental statistics comparing the environmental impact of various journeys in the UK by different modes of transport and carbon emissions from transport by local authority.

Data on the emissions from journeys across the United Kingdom, by mode is available from the energy and environment data tables page.

An interactive version of data on comparing journey emissions is available. Further details, including data and methodology is available.
