In this Podcast we discuss with Julia Valentine & Catriona Leggat the issue of gender and active travel.
The active travel and gender report of 2018 shows that women’s journeys around cities are typically shorter than men’s, use different modes of transport and are more likely to involve ‘trip-chaining’ (multi-stop journeys) which tend to be for a balance of child care, work and household responsibilities.
And, whilst women are motivated to travel actively for physical and mental health reasons, worries about their personal safety, convenience (particularly when taking multi-stop trips) and appearance are all barriers to preventing them from cycling and walking.
Julia Valentine & Catriona Leggat are in the Women’s Equality Party and have been concerned for some time about active travel for women especially women travelling alone. In this webinar we are going to explore their concerns and what the solutions might be.
