Wednesday, March 8, 1995 -- Secretary of Transportation Federico Peña today
announced the release of the twenty-third edition of the
National Transportation Statistics (NTS) report from the
United States Department of Transportation.
"The department's Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS)
has performed a valuable service for those who require
transportation information," Secretary Peña said. "By
providing this data in a comprehensive source, statistics widely
dispersed throughout numerous government and trade agencies are
now readily available from one convenient repository."
The information contained in the NTS illustrates activity
for the major transportation modes and is collected to support
research, analysis, and decision making across all areas of
transportation. The data are provided in five-year increments
for 1960-1992, and 1993 where available. In some instances, data
extend back to 1955 and are forecast through 1998.
Dr. T. R. Lakshmanan, Director of the Bureau of
Transportation Statistics, said that "Accessibility to these data
is vital to the transportation community. Over the years, this
document has become an indispensable tool for users of
transportation statistics who seek reputable figures."
National Transportation Statistics is also available
on diskette in Excel format.
To order the NTS publication or diskette, or for further
