Department for Transport written question – answered at on 28 February 2019.
Baroness Randerson
Liberal Democrat Lords Spokesperson (Transport)
To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they expect to meet the target in their Cycling and Walking Investment Strategy for 800 million extra cycling trips by 2025; and if not, what revised target they intend to adopt for the same period.
Baroness Sugg
Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)
The Government is committed to meeting the various goals set out in the Cycling and Walking Investment Strategy, including the aim to double the amount of cycling by 2025, and is not considering any revisions. Current policy is projected to fill around one third of the gap towards the 2025 aim of 1.6 billion cycle stages, based on projected funding provision in the current Spending Review period. Further investment to meet existing aims and targets for cycling and walking post 2020/21 will be considered as part of the forthcoming Spending Review.
