Within Cork City centre, 13,116 people (39.4%) walk to work or school, 1,415 (4.3%) cycle and 3,896 (11.7%) take a bus to work or school.
Walking is the most frequent commute. Active (walking & cycling) and public (bus & train) transport (55.9%) exceeds car use (33.2%).
#Cork City does not resource active transport (esp. #disabled people): narrow pavements, limited space, disconnected and inadequate cycle lanes, cyclists forced onto pedestrian paths, and crossing timings all favour car transport - at the expense of a large resident population.
