As a community, we have to take responsibility for the impact of commuting, which is why we have prepared our first Travel Plan. The targets within the Travel Plan, if achieved, will ensure that UCD can continue to show leadership in sustainable travel and support the ongoing development of the University.
Within the next decade, it’s expected that the combined student and employee population of UCD will grow to just under 35,000. That’s a lot of people – and a lot of daily journeys to and from the University.
Against this background, UCD is committed to the promotion of sustainable transport to, from and within our Belfield and Blackrock campuses. Our vision is to create a high quality campus environment which promotes sustainable, healthy and active lifestyles, while offering transport and mobility choice for the University community.
An integral part of the plan’s development is the input of the UCD Community. As such, we encourage you to please read the draft plan and send us your comments and suggestions to commuting@ucd.ie.
