How Australians’ commutes compare with cities overseas
A global study of 117 cities finds Australian capitals have fairly poor access by car. Public transport, cycling and walking access isn't as good as in Europe and China.
Why the need for speed?
We spend on average about an hour a day travelling. Given this is unlikely to change, how can we make this time more productive and enjoyable?
People take to their bikes when we make it safer and easier for them
The evidence suggests a small investment in cycling infrastructure, combined with less punitive policing, would enable more Australians to escape daily traffic congestion.
