Active Travel
Improving the health of our communities
Communities are shaped around people, where walking or cycling should be the most popular choice for shorter journeys and where wheeling is a safe and pleasant experience for the mobility impaired. We are passionate about enhancing communities to make them more liveable, with reduced carbon emissions to ensure health benefits and safe travel for all. Throughout the planning of our active travel infrastructure, we do this with the aim of reducing inequality.
