Special Eurobarometer 422a: Quality of transport / Special Eurobarometer 422b: Europeans experience with using ships and perceptions of maritime safety
Descripción
422a: DG MOVE commissioned this survey to gather information from Europeans citizens, understand their habits, hear their opinions, and analyse their perceptions of transport related matters. The survey focused on: • The most frequently used modes of transport for daily and long journeys, and the reasons these modes were chosen; • How to encourage the use of public transport by car and motorbike users; • The perceptions of the quality of road, air and rail over the last five years and the most serious problems affecting these modes of transport; • How to make the transport sector more appealing for job seekers. Results are presented first for the EU as a whole, then for individual countries, followed by socio-demographic analysis. 422b: Sea transport expensive but safe, reveals Eurobarometer survey. European citizens think that ticket prices are the most serious problem for sea or river transport (18%) in the EU, followed by water pollution and small amount of links between destinations (both 15%), and lack of frequent services (14%), revealed a Eurobarometre survey on the quality and safety of maritime and river transport released today by the European Commission. Safety however is not an issue, as 68% of respondents said cruise ships and passenger ferries are safe. The feeling of safety is increasing when passengers are reassured about crew competence and the presence of life-saving appliances, as pointed out by 33% of respondents. Also the availability of destinations at the closest port (78%) is considered important, while the name of the company is considered relevant only by 46% respondents. To be noted, among the people surveyed only one quarter (24%) had travelled by commercial ship or boat in the past 12 months, and most of them did so for holidays (70%) or other leisure activities (23%), 4% for business trips and 1% for daily commuting.
