Observations & Questions

Group Work

Does the plan cover the key themes and delivery structures to ensure improvements for cycling – if not what’s missing?

What areas will generate the biggest improvements and

therefore what would you prioritise as a means to generate increased cycle usage (Media, Staff Training, Workplace Initiatives, Environmental Change/Legislation, School Travel Initiatives, etc?

Highlight a case study (ies) of work that successfully bring

cycling, the environment and the education, NHS/care or workplace setting together that would merit wider roll-out.
