Consultation on 'Active Travel'

If you'd prefer to walk, cycle, or even run to work, government wants your opinion on its 'Active Travel' proposals.

The Department of Infrastructure is looking for feedback on how everyday 'journeys of necessity' can be undertaken on foot, or by bike, rather than in cars.

It launched a public consultation in July, which runs until September 25 - you can find it at consult@gov.im

Department heads hope a culture which encourages physical activity can improve health, reduce traffic congestion and result in better air quality

DoI Minister Ray Harmer says the public can help shape the future of travel.
