The Network

The Network is a monthly e-newsletter which seeks to inform professional audiences about the breadth and depth of Sustrans work and places it in the context of the wider political and policy agenda. It includes articles that make the link between transport policy and its impact particularly on health, education and environment policy.
Articles from the current issue include:
Children’s health and active travel
Dr Mike Knapton tells us why academics are increasingly studying the impact on children’s behaviour and health of a change to active travel, and publishing new evidence in favour of active travel.
Our research findings provide incredibly strong results showing the dramatic benefits in air quality on quietly trafficked and off road routes.
Active travel and improved learning at school
Dr Adrian Davis shares his views on the impact of physical activity on children’s educational attainment
Travel Actively into the future
Travel Actively has given 1.5 million people the chance to be more active by walking and cycling.
