Measuring success – walking and cycling

We use data from the National Travel Survey and recorded by the Department for Transport to report on how many people are walking and cycling at least 3 times a week.

We will also collect information on who walks or cycles to, from and through the town centre using our annual cordon counts. We will report this data annually.
