All strategies propose measures to improve provision for walking and cycling.
Typical measures to enhance walking include new pedestrian crossings, greater priority to pedestrians at existing controlled crossings, pedestrianisation, improved security using CCTV, off-road leisure routes particularly in rural areas, better footpath maintenance and the installation of dropped kerbs. Cycling measures include on-road cycle lanes, cycle audits to improve provision for cyclists in road improvement schemes, efforts to improve parking provision for cycles, cycle storage eg at stations, seeking better provision for cycles on public transport, and leisure routes. Traffic management measures such as traffic calming will also help to improve conditions, especially safety, for walkers and cyclists. Typically these targets are long-term, for example to year 2010. It is not generally clear to what extent these targets are based on the use of quantitative travel forecasting methods.
