Benefits of cycling overview:
Cycling offers tangible benefits for those who participate, but there are also wider benefits for society as a whole. The positive contribution to individual’s health, to the environment and problems with congestion are evident, but cycling plays a role in providing more independence to children; improving the quality of life for communities and in many areas supporting tourism. Individuals who resort to cycling as an alternative means of transport benefit our communities in the long run by:
- Reducing pollution and emission of CO2
- Improving their general fitness
- Easing traffic congestion
Studies show that road transport contributes approximately 70% of the air pollution in UK towns and cities. Traffic pollution damages bio-diversity, local climate and degrades the built environment but its greatest impact is on health. Evidence from the department of health suggests air pollution is responsible for 14 – 24,000 hospital admissions each year. In addition road traffic is responsible for 22 % of the UK’s total CO2 emissions. The value of substituting car with cycle trip is higher in areas of greater congestion, creating greater saving for cycling investment in cities than in rural areas.
Encouraging cycling to school or work reduces traffic at peak times, reduces the strain on other forms of transport and cuts travel time for other users. An estimated one in five vehicles is on a school run during the school traffic time.
Cycling to school incorporates physical activity into children’s daily routine and so improving pupil’s fitness levels. It’s a crucial life skill, giving children an early road sense as they take their first steps towards independence. When asked almost half of children would prefer to travel to school by bike, but only 2 % do so?
