Updated versions of some of the 'key' tables and charts in Scottish Transport Statistics will be prepared in the following instances:

(a) when a further year's figures become available for the "key" topics which are "a year behind" the rest of the publication (e.g. those for which the Summary tables show "not available" for the latest year, such as the bus and coach statistics and port/waterborne freight statistics in the "2004" edition); and

(b) to correct any errors that are found in published tables.

Please note that:

• the updated tables will be made available in spreadsheets which will appear separately from those which give the figures in the tables that were originally published;
• the material in the electronic version of the publication will not be updated - it will remain "as published".

There are twelve extra road accident statistics tables, each covering the years from 1981 to 2002. The kinds of topics for which they provide numbers include:

• killed and seriously injured casualties by mode of transport;
• child casualties by age and sex;
• accidents by police force area and severity; and
• casualties by Council area and severity.

The "release" of updated versions of Scottish Transport Statistics tables, and of extra road accident statistics tables, will be announced by e-mail to the ScotStat "Transport" mailing list (and others), along with notification of new Scottish Executive (SE) Transport Statistics publications and any consultations on SE Transport statistics.
