Answer from Hansard

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Transport (Simon Lightwood)

The Government recognise the importance of promoting active travel. We recently announced almost £300 million of active travel funding, enough for up to 300 miles of new footways and cycleways. We will say more very soon on the next steps for the third cycling and walking investment strategy.
