Madam,

I want to see the Welsh Government take action so that local streets are safe, free from congestion and thriving places for me and my family to walk and spend time in. I’m supporting Living Streets Cymru who are calling for more action from the Welsh Government on promoting active travel. The benefits are wide ranging, from health and transport savings, to improving the environment and reducing loneliness.

Low physical activity levels among children and adults costs NHS Wales £650m a year. Having passed the world-first Active Travel Act over a year ago, the Welsh Government now needs to turn ideas into action and get more people walking. We need a clear, fully funded plan of action now.

Yours etc

Stephen Rice
