Accessibility
This section covers Transport Accessibility and Internet Access and Usage.
Overview
Transport
It is essential to ensure that wherever people live in the county, they have access to public services. The rural nature of much of Gloucestershire creates problems for people wanting to use centrally based services, and for agencies providing services to people in their own homes. To help the understanding of geographical accessibility issues there are several sources of data, both national and local, which have been used to provide the information below.
