As you can observe in the sketch, the option of taking the bus it should be the faster one, but actually it is not the one. During peak hours, the bus takes too much time to travel just 1 or 2km (specially around Bascule), due to the traffic jams and the amount of cars leaving the city and going to the cities around for working issues probably. That leads to a loss of travel time, increases the pollution of the air and the noise, and also decreases the happiness and health and produces anxiety between the commuters. When you want to economize the travel time in an efficient, quick and relaxed way, waiting long time in the middle of traffic jams or for the public transport, it is not the best solution. For that, the second option (biking trough the Park Bois the La Cambre) is more suitable, because despite being longer in 0.5km than the other one, it saves you more than 15minutes and it has good benefits for your physical and mental health, besides being a method of transportation that helps to maintain the environment and ecology, and reduces the UHI effects inside the city. ![Barirere 1-home][1] ![Barriere 2-home][2] ![Bascule -middle route][3] ![Work][4] ![OPTION ROUTES FROM HOME TO WORK][5] [1]: https://edxuploads.s3.amazonaws.com/14502162277514941.jpg [2]: https://edxuploads.s3.amazonaws.com/14502162392766232.jpg [3]: https://edxuploads.s3.amazonaws.com/14502162558898258.jpg [4]: https://edxuploads.s3.amazonaws.com/14502162691579647.jpg [5]: https://edxuploads.s3.amazonaws.com/14502158588808531.jpg
