Hinweis der Redaktion
The three most common modes of travel – accounting for over ninety percent of respondents’ children – were walking, being driven, and riding the school bus. Travel modes to and from tend to be consistent, with 9% identifying a change in mode. Two thirds of these respondents drive their children to school, but they travel home a different way – nearly half walk home, while the majority of others ride the school bus or public transit. Public transit becomes a more significant mode of travel by grades 7 and 8 – important to note that nearly all public transit was in Toronto census division.

Within 1 km, three in four have their child walk to and home from school. Drops off significantly for those who live further away.

Respondents who live in the Toronto census division, and within 1 km of their child’s school, are the most likely to have their children walk to school, at 82%, and walk home from school, at 86%. We find few significant differences in travel habits between Hamilton or Peel and the rest of the GTHA. We do see a significantly greater likelihood in each of these regions for children to ride the school bus, and a significantly lower rate of walking in Hamilton than the average, but these differences can be traced to the effects of the distinctive travel profile found in the Toronto CD (specifically, a higher rate of walking, and lower rate of riding/availability of the school bus), rather than unique habits found in Hamilton or Peel.
Main reason for mode fell into three basic categories: They or their child preferred that method; They feel that there are no other options available to them; and They have concerns about other methods. For example, “safety issues” fit into the concerns category, while an ineligibility for school bus service fits into the no other options category. These responses were open ended, and while we asked for their main method, we accepted more than one response where applicable. The only regional difference we find is in Peel, where active methods are more likely to be used because of a lack of other options and less likely to be used because it is preferred ( no other options 34%; preferred 59%).
There does appear to be a relationship between parent’s own experience and their child’s mode of transport.
Six in ten children who walk or bike to or home from school do so with other school-aged children. Looking at travel to and home from school combined , 9% of children travel in an organized group for at least one journey.
Over 7 in 10 children who walk or bike to school are accompanied by an adult. We see significantly different patterns of accompaniment when considering the grade of the child. More than half of children attending kindergarten are accompanied nearly half of grades 1 – 6 drops off significantly in grades 4 through 6, with a commensurate increase in travel with children but not an adult. In grades 7 and 8, majority travel with other children, but no adult, and nearly 1 in 5 travels alone.
