In 2024, Huntingdon's transportation landscape is uniquely dominated by walking, with no significant use of other transport modes.
This pedestrian-centric approach results in minimal CO2 emissions and a straightforward commuting experience.
The average commute time for all categories is 15 minutes, primarily due to walking.
During the winter months, walking may be less appealing due to colder weather, potentially impacting commute times.
Spring and summer see increased pedestrian activity, as favorable weather conditions encourage walking.
Adverse weather conditions can make walking less comfortable and increase commute times.
Limited public transport options may inconvenience those unable to walk long distances.
Early morning and late afternoon are ideal for walking, avoiding midday heat or evening chill.
Weekends offer more flexibility, with less pedestrian congestion in popular areas.
Local events can increase foot traffic, leading to crowded sidewalks and longer walking times.
Festivals and markets may temporarily disrupt usual walking routes, requiring detours.
Huntingdon is investing in pedestrian-friendly infrastructure to support sustainable commuting.
Efforts include expanding sidewalks and improving pedestrian crossings to enhance safety and accessibility.
Ride-sharing services have minimal impact due to the predominant use of walking.
However, they offer a convenient alternative for longer distances or during inclement weather.
