It is not every day you get to talk to the Mayor’s Walking & Cycling Commissioner, but this is exactly who I am talking to in this podcast.
Dr. Will Norman became London's first Walking and Cycling Commissioner in 2016 and now leads the Mayor’s work to make the capital’s streets safer for walking and cycling, enabling thousands more Londoners to choose greener, cleaner and healthier ways of traveling around the city. Being able to walk and cycle safely in the city should be the right of every family in London, yet many London parents believe the capital's traffic-choked roads are too dangerous for their children to cycle on.
However, given carbon footprint is one measure of sustainability and transport is 18% of that, it should be of no surprise just how beneficial both walking and cycling is for our health and the planet when done safely.
As obesity rates among children soar and the planet becomes even more damaged, what better way to take action and learn how to ride a bike because children who cycle regularly are more likely to become active adults.
Will is full of interesting facts and suggestions including the TfL grants designed to support settings instigate walking and / or cycling initiatives.
