We're working with @transportgovuk to deliver the Integrated National Transport Strategy, helping to give everyone more transport choice. Read @Chris_Boardman's statement below: 👩🦽🚶🚲
![Quote card that reads: “Active travel is literally the first and last step of every journey, making it the crucial foundation for a successful integrated transport strategy. By enabling people to safely and easily walk, wheel or cycle for local trips or connect with buses, trams and trains for longer journeys, this government will make millions of lives better and support investment in local networks. Active Travel England is excited to be part of this holistic approach […] to give families more transport choice and improve our towns, cities and villages.” - Chris Boardman, National Active Travel Commissioner.

A hierarchy of road users doesn't remove individual responsibility for our own safety. 🔺 It places greater responsibility on those that pose the greatest risk. This Highway Code rule exists to make roads safer, particularly for the most vulnerable users. 🚴🚶♀️
