• A new edition of the Annual Bulletin of Transport Statistics for Europe has just been published, by the ' Economic Commission for Europe, a UN agency. It can be obtained from the ECE (Commission Economique pour L'Europe, Geneva, Switzerland) for $3.50 or equivalent, and contains figures up to the end of 1969.
Once again, the UK is shown as having the greatest density of motor traffic in East or West Europe, but of far greater interest for transport students will be the vast amount of statistical information on vehicles, tonnages and mileages for the main transport modes, country by country.
This edition is particularly valuable in that it contains the five-year summary (which last appeared in 1965), an authoritative review of trends in road, rail, air and water transport in Europe.
Also just published by the BCE is Statistics of Road Traffic Accidents in Europe, 1969, price $0.75 or equivalent.
