Enabling active, inclusive and safe travel – by providing accessible, well- designed space for walking and cycling, the healthiest means of moving around London’s streets b. Using street space more efficiently – reducing traffic levels through better-managed freight and fewer car trips c. Improving air quality and the environment – and ensuring London’s transport system is resilient to the impacts of severe weather and climate change The first policy in the Mayor’s Transport Strategy contains a headline target and demonstrates the importance of walking to the whole strategy. Policy 1: The Mayor, through TfL and the boroughs, and working with stakeholders, will reduce Londoners’ dependency on cars in favour of active, efficient and sustainable modes of travel, with the central aim for 80 per cent* of all trips in London to be made on foot, by cycle or using public transport by 2041.

The Mayor’s target is to increase walking by 1%, or 57,000 trips a day by 2031 Previous qualitative research has armed TfL with insights on walking for both utility and leisure journeys; including the various motivations and barriers that exist simultaneously in people’s minds.

  • Population Analysis of North West London for John Lyon's Charity
    Population analysis of North West London for John Lyon’s Charity This note summarises the findings of our population analysis for the eight north west London boroughs in which John Lyon’s Charity is active. Analysis has not been possible for the City of London. It looks at how the population has changed since the start of the recession in 2008 by looking at a range of variables – the overall population, the population aged 16-25, the proportion of working age and young adults claiming an out of work benefit, and the proportion of children entitled to free school meals. It compares the boroughs in North West London to other parts of London, then looks more closely at the different wards in the eight boroughs covered by John Lyon’s work. Summary The total populations of the eight boroughs (excluding the City of London) where John Lyon’s Charity is active changed substantially between 2008 and 2013, but in different ways. The number of children living in Barnet, Ealing and Brent rose by 10%. The working age population of Barnet and Brent also rose by 8% in those five years. Rises in Inner London split into two groups. Kensington was unique in London in seeing no increase in its child population between 2008 and 2013, with Hammersmith seeing the second smallest increase. But the under 18 populations of Camden and Westminster rose quickly. The working age populations of Kensington and Hammersmith actually fell over those five years. The proportion of children eligible for free school meals fell in all eight boroughs, for both primary and secondary school pupils.

Potentially walkable trips 17 4. Where are potentially walkable trips being made? 27 5. Potentially walkable stages 36 6. The total potential for walking 46 7. Conclusions 54 2 Executive summary Key findings Londoners make 3.6 million daily journeys by motorised modes (car, motorcycle, taxi or public transport) that could be walked, at least in part Of these, nearly 2.4 million trips could be walked all the way These trips are mostly made by car or bus, with most taking place in outer London Forty per cent of these trips would take less than 10 minutes for most people to walk The remaining 1.2 million potentially walkable journeys are those that could only be walked part of the way (such as driving or taking the bus to/from a rail station). These are referred to as walk stages. Most potentially walkable stages in central London or in outer London town centres are currently made by public transport and are for work reasons Walking is already a popular mode of travel in London – the most recent Travel in London report shows that on an average day there are 6.3 million walk trips (where walking was the only mode used) and 6.8 million walk stages (where walking was part of a longer trip using other modes) of more than five minutes made in London. More, however, can be done to encourage more people to walk more often – given that, at present, only 34 per cent of adults in London are achieving two 10-minute periods of active travel per day.
