TRAVEL | What is Active Travel?

Simply put, walking and cycling. If you need to pop into town or to your village shop, take a walk or ride there. It has obvious benefits for health and wellbeing, and you are not contributing to local air pollution or using expensive petrol/diesel consumed by most cars. On a short journey, let’s say a ten-minute walk, you will probably get there just as quick walking by avoiding traffic and not having to find a place to park your car, and probably avoid parking fees.
