I noticed Utrecht in the third place. Having worked there, I can agree with that. However, with Utrecht being so expensive to live in I experienced that most people that work in Utrecht, don't live there. They live in 'affordable' smaller cities and villages nearby. And with industrial estates like Papendorp and Science Park having sub-par public transit, those people often take the car. If you live in a place like Cothen, it is 19 minutes by car to Science Park or 53 minutes by public transit. Papendorp is over an hour by public transit and 18 minutes by car.

So while 75% of the people living in Utrecht are likely to travel to work by bicycle or even walking, I'd say that the people working in Utrecht are far less likely to travel there by bicycle, walking or even public transit. Resulting in daily heavy traffic on the nearby four highways of Utrecht (A2, A12, A28, A27)
