Active travel is all about using physical activity to get around. Walking, cycling, scooting and skating are obvious examples, even using public transport can be ‘active’ if you choose to walk from the bus stop or train station to your destination.

Active travel routes with designated ‘pick up/drop off points’ are safe and accessible routes children and families can use to safely walk and ride along to get to and from school or their early childhood service.
