A new National Audit Office report released today has revealed that Government's 'active travel' targets to get more people traveling by bike and on foot are failing after years of inadequate stop-start funding.
The National Audit Office report studied whether the Department of Transport (DfT) is likely to achieve its objectives by 2025. This comes just three months after the DfT slashed funding for active travel projects in England (outside of London) by over two thirds, from around £308 million over two years to £100 million.
