Our population is spread out across a large rural area, which makes large-scale transport solutions challenging. However, with some of the shortest commute distances in Scotland *—this presents a great opportunity to develop active travel (walking, cycling, wheeling).
The Scottish Government is increasing funding for active travel, and having a clear strategy will help us make a case for a fair share of this funding for Argyll and Bute’s communities.
We would welcome your views on the draft strategy to help ensure it meets the needs of our communities and presents the strongest case possible for funding.
*The 2022 Census shows that people in Argyll and Bute travel some of the shortest distances between home and work/education.
