The vertical axis measures percentages from 0 to 120 in increments of 20 percent. The horizontal axis has three bars; the first one, for route miles, has 4.1 percent for NHS and 95.9 for non-NHS. The second bar, for lane-miles, has 6.6 percent for NHS and 93.4 for non-NHS. And the third bar, for VMT, has 52.8 percent for NHS and 47.2 for non-NHS.
