Cycling@Lunchtime#8 - Ten reasons why "Public Health" doesn't seem to be championing the cycling agenda
Tuesday 12th May 2015
Lucy Saunders works for both TfL and the GLA as Public Health Specialist (Transport & Public Realm).
Public Health staff, budgets and responsibilities returned from the NHS to Local Authorities in March 2013. It was widely expected this would make it much easier to implement Active Travel policies with Public Health putting their weight behind a step change in activity to meet the physical inactivity challenge. But so far transport planners and advocates have been disappointed. Lucy has worked in both public health teams and transport teams and will offer ten possible factors (personal, structural, cultural and political) that are contributing to the current situation.
