Mapped: Cyclists in Dublin by area -- IrishCycle.com

After we reported a 26% increase in cyclists in Dublin, Jim posted this comment:

“You can see a map showing, among other Census stuff, the cycling rate in different parts of the country here.

I captured the Dublin map here. Unfortunately cycling levels seem very low outside Dublin.”

Here’s a screen shot of the map showing a break down of the modal share of cyclists, mapping by the All-Island Research Observatory with Census 2011 data from the CSO:

...I'm sorry to disrupt you while you're reading this article, but without messages like this, IrishCycle.com's reader-funded journalism won't survive. With nearly 1/2 million views and 300k readers so-far this year, it's not just people who are dedicated to cycling that this website reaches. However, the number of subscribers is around 0.6% of readers. While having a large gap between readers/subscribers is standard for non-paywall reader-supported journalism, IrishCycle's journalism needs more support. Don't delay, support monthly or yearly today. Now, back to the article...

If you want a good look at the map, it’s well worth viewing the interactive map here — currently you have [a] to open the ‘population’ sub-menu and deselected all that is pre-selected, and then [b] go down to the ‘transport’ sub-menu and click ‘bike’, the second option.

The areas shown are ‘small area population statistics’, which are subdivisions of the ‘local electoral areas’ mentioned at the end of the article yesterday.

...That's the end of the article. Keep scrolling if you want to the comments, but IrishCycle.com *NEEDS* readers like you to keep it that way. It only requires a small percentage of readers to give a bit each month or every year to keep IrishCycle.com's journalism open to all. Thank you.
