Those stats really don't indicate anything to me.
There's no real point to be made. Just a fact. This was an informal fun poll internally....like having a TE poll.

However it does indicate something...we just have alot of employees with access to a personal car. Actually there's over 4,000 employees who don't even have access to work computers/intranet because their jobs are outdoors and require focused attention on the road, etc. So we can't blame those employees for not responding.

Others just aren't interested /pay attention to internal polls.

HOWEVER:

There was a formal, in-depth online survey done on employees regarding their work commmuting transportation mode habits less than 4 months ago. Over 3,500 employees responded. I think it was at least over 30% employee response. That is high.

Final results will be released next yr.

Yes we do have public transit in our city. The in-depth survey did include several questions on cycling to work as a choice.
