Mae'r prif faich o ran cyfrifoldebau gofalu yn parhau i gael ei ysgwyddo gan fenywod ar y cyfan, a gall hyn greu patrymau teithio mwy cymhleth, ond mae'r ffordd y caiff rhwydweithiau trafnidiaeth eu cynllunio, gan gynnwys llwybrau teithio llesol, yn aml yn adlewyrchu patrymau teithio cymudwyr traddodiadol. Ychydig o ystyriaeth a roddir i sut y gellid annog rhiant prysur, neu rywun sy'n llai hyderus ar feic, i jyglo blaenoriaethau niferus a sawl llwybr i gyrraedd y gwaith a'r ysgol. Rhaid inni ymdrin â'r diffyg hwn o ran dyluniad y system.
Women still predominantly bear the main burden of caring responsibilities which can create more complex travel patterns, but the planning of transport networks, including active travel routes, often reflects traditional commuter travel patterns. Little thought is given to how a busy parent, or someone less confident on a bike, may be encouraged to juggle multiple priorities and several routes to get to work and school. This is a system design failure that we must address.
