David Banister, Professor Emeritus of Transport Studies (School of Geography and the Environment, University of Oxford) talks about his new book, 'Inequality in Transport'.

He reveals that reveals that, in the UK, we are travelling 5 times further today than we did in 1960. But it is the better-off who are travelling faster and further, leaving the poor in the slow lane and closer to home. Key findings include:
The richest 5% make 550 car trips/year and drive 7230 miles/year; the poorest 5%, 200 car trips/year and drive just 1,500 miles/year
The richest make 200 walk trips/year and the poorest, 300 walk trips/year
The richest make 31 bus trips/year; the poorest, 113 bus trips/year
The richest make 50 rail trips/year and travel 1850 miles; the poorest, 14 rail trips/year and travel 356 miles
