Active travel behaviour change programmes ‘should last five years – Transport Xtra
Achieving behaviour change in favour of active travel needs sustained effort and funding for at least five years, according to a cross party group which believes the Active Travel (Wales) Act 2013 has been poorly implemented
The group took evidence from many witnesses, including deputy climate change minister Lee Waters. Its report, published on 28 June, calls for a National Delivery Plan for Active Travel to be put in place by the end of this year. Among other things, the plan should clarify and codify the roles of various organisations and set out priorities for infrastructure development based on maximising modal shift.
