Road Traffic
The total volume of traffic on Scotland's roads was at a record level in 2006: 43,880 million vehicle-kilometres. This was almost 3% more than in 2005, a larger increase than between 2004-2005. Traffic volume has tended to increase steadily, with rises of 19% since 1995 and 10% since 1999. The slight dip in 2000 was due to the fuel price protests.
