John O'Gorman, 2006Today, there are many different ways to get from one place to another.
Cars are the most popular form of transport. They have become so popular that there is not enough room for all of them on the roads, especially in cities and larger towns. This results in traffic jams, which cause long delays for people travelling to and from work and school.
However, not everyone travels to work and school by car. Some take the bus, while others use the train. There are dozens of school buses in Ireland that travel to and from schools every day.
These buses bring children to school in both towns and in the countryside. They are very important to children who live in the countryside. If they did not exist, many children would have to walk or cycle miles to get to school, like they did years ago in Tipperary.
Today, people often cycle and walk mainly for fitness or relaxation.
