Our Goals

Dingle Hub is working with public and private sector partners to reduce carbon emissions on the peninsula with our Sustainable Mobility Pathfinder Project [PDF].

The project will reduce carbon emissions from rural transport by providing realistic alternatives to private car journeys.  We’re working in six areas:

• Personal mobility: structural improvements to infrastructure; and initiatives to encourage cycling, walking, car-pooling and car-sharing.
• Public transport: expanding and improving the already thriving Local Link service, and using technology to better inform residents and visitors of public transport services and schedules.
• Electric/low-carbon vehicles: making public buses electric, adding charging points for public and private vehicles, encouraging e-scooters and e-bikes, and building on the success of the ESB Networks Dingle Project.
• Marketing: creating a campaign that resonates with local residents, and making people aware of how their transportation choices affect carbon emissions.
• Resourcing: identifying funding and staff needs for future projects.
• Evaluation: monitoring behavioral changes and carbon emission reductions.
