The detailed analysis for “Car”(including taxi) show that this mode has the highest modal share,
from 30% up to 70%, with “normal” values between 40-60%. (Fig. 3)

However, Taxi shows different behaviour depending on the size of the city. Except for Girona, it
remains between 10-30% of “Car”.

In relation to the bus, and as can be seen in the Figure 4, the results highlight the following:

• There is a low participation of the bus, especially intercity bus, as access / egress mode.

• In Madrid and Barcelona, as has already been mentioned, the main “public transports” are
metro and train (> 35%), Bus remains under 3%.

• In medium cities, Urban bus modal share between 4-12%
• Intercity bus between 2,5-5%, only for passengers of conventional services in Zaragoza, it
reachs 7%.
