How have improvements to transport effected leisure activities?

• Car ownership has rapidly increased so it is a lot easier for people to go away for a day or longer.
• More motorways speed up travelling and make it easier.
• By-passes reduce holdups and make people's journeys more relaxing.
• Air travel has also increased.
• Air fares are now lower so people can afford to travel by air and airports have been built near popular holiday destinations.
