North American Transportation in Figures [19 November 2008]

Known as : NORTH AMERICAN TRANSPORTATION STATISTICS DATABASE
This report provides a comprehensive overview of transportation statistics in the United States, Mexico and Canada. Each language edition English, Spanish and French contains more than 30 data tables. Statistics include modes of transportation, fuel consumption, number of passengers, fatalities and more
[excerpt]
Statistics On-Line Database presents information on transportation and transportation-related activities among Canada, the United States and Mexico, both within individual countries and between the countries. This database, presented in French, English, and Spanish is, accessible in table and time series formats, and covers twelve thematic areas, including transportation and the economy, transportation safety, transportation's impact on energy and the environment, passenger and freight activity, and transportation and trade.
This On-Line Database currently contains 31 tables with additions planned for the future, and allows users to obtain both value data in any of the three national currencies and volume data in metric or U.S. measurement units via the time series function. Data in table or time series format can be printed or downloaded for further processing and analysis. For most tables, data are available for 1990, 1995 to 2004. The data will be updated on a regular basis, thus a few tables already contain more recent data.
The On-Line Database updates a subset of tables and figures from the North American Transportation in Figures report published in 2000. The report, also released in French, English and Spanish, includes data for 1990, 1995 and 1996, with value data reported only in current U.S. dollars and all measurement units in metric. To view and download the full report, please consult http://www.bts.gov/programs/international/natf.html.
The On-Line Database and the Figures report are products of the North American Transportation Statistics working group within the North American Transportation Statistics Interchange, a trilateral initiative among the transportation and statistical agencies of Canada, the United States and Mexico. Underway since 1991, the Interchange provides a forum for the exchange of information and for the discussion of topics and issues related to transportation statistics among the participating countries. The last Interchange meeting was held during June 2008 in Manzanillo, Colima, Mexico. The next Interchange meeting is scheduled for the summer of 2009 in Washington, D.C.
