Call for evidence  

CIHT has launched a call for evidence to support the newly launched project on improving health through active travel. 

The call for evidence will help us gather information on obstacles preventing the successful implementation of active travel schemes, best practices and success stories from across the sector and understand how data can be used to demonstrate which initiatives work best.  

If you are interested in the project and would like to contribute, please scan the QR code or follow the link below.

Please submit your evidence by 5pm Friday 27th June. 

About the project  

Walking, wheeling and cycling are important for our health. Encouraging more people to travel via active modes, when possible, will improve health, quality of life, the environment, local economies and reduce the costs associated with health and social care. 

However, our highways network can prove inhospitable to active travel, meaning that many people are forced to rely on private vehicles for everyday journeys.  

The CIHT project to make it easier for local authorities to implement active travel schemes, focusing particularly on: 

• The challenges preventing the successful implementation of active travel schemes. 
• Recommendations as to how to overcome these obstacles 
• How to use data effectively to demonstrate the success of schemes
