NICE – Physically active travel
Policy goal: Ensure government funding supports physically active modes of travel. To achieve this, the evidence suggests that the following are among the measures that should be considered.
- Ensure guidance for local transport plans supports physically active travel. This can be achieved by allocating a percentage of the integrated block allocation fund to schemes which support walking and cycling as modes of transport.
- Create an environment and incentives which promote physical activity, including physically active travel to and at work.
- Consider and address factors which discourage physical activity, including physically active travel to and at work. An example of the latter is subsidised parking.
