It’s nearly spring and time for the clocks to go forward. Time to get out and about on foot and by bike for those essential short journeys to the shops, school and to the park.
Most of the journeys in our city region are less than 5km, but a lot of us still make those trips by car. If we start to switch to people power to get to the shops, to work or school, to see friends and family, we can really make a difference. Whether you walk, cycle, jog, push a buggy or use a handbike - every move matters. Not only would it be great for our health, but also our wallets and the planet.
Millions of pounds are being invested in new cycling and walking routes across our city region to help you travel actively with more confidence.
