What do we see?
In Flanders, an average of 2,300 buses are used for public transport. That number has remained roughly constant for more than a decade and amounts to about a quarter of the total number of buses in Flanders.
What’s the aim?
In a circular economy, we aim for an increasing share of shared mobility, in addition to focusing on active modes of travel such as cycling. High-performance public transport systems are excellent ways to minimise the material consumption of our mobility system.
What does this indicator measure?
The number of buses used by transport company De Lijn is reported through its annual reports. Until 2017, the FPS Mobility and Transport published figures on buses for all uses.
