TRANSPORT CENSUS.
BRITISH TALLY CONCLUDED. (British Official Wireless.) RUGBY, Aug. 19. The week’s traffic census organised by the Ministry of Transport ended this morning. Weather conditions have fortunately been normal so that the figures collected by the army of 10,000 enumerators at nearly 6000 j>oints throughout the country will afford a sound basis for plans to deal with modern traffic problems. The statistics will be analysed locally by surveyors before they go to London to be co-ordinated and classified nationally. It is already apparent that the figures of bicycles in use will be found remarkably high and may necessitate further consideration of the need for special tracks for bicycles
