    Its so simple... Sustrans

    straightorward and practical

    solutions really work.

    Last year we made it possible or more

    children to walk or cycle to school than ever

    beore; we saw record-breaking numberso people using the National Cycle

    Network; we enabled thousands o people

    in workplaces and communities throughout

    the UK to walk, cycle and use public

    transport more; we worked with residents

    to redesign their streets to suit their needs;

    and we campaigned or slower speeds in

    residential areas so that children can be out

    and about and active rom their ront door.

    None o this would be possible without the

    ongoing support o our donors, unders

    and corporate partners so, on behal o

    all the benefciaries o our work, I wouldlike to thank you. Were also grateul to

    our dedicated and committed team o

    volunteers who enable us to extend

    the reach o our work.

    We all lead busy lives, so weve kept this

    Review simple. Its designed as a snapshot

    o our work that you can read on a train

    journey or over a cup o coee. We hope

    it will inspire you, perhaps give pause or

    thought on how, in this sophisticated world

    o ours, its oten simple measures that are

    most eective.

    And, o course, wed love to tell you more

    about what we do and to hear your ideas

    on how we can work together in 2012

    and beyond. So i you'd like to get in

    touch, you'll fnd our contact details on

    the back cover.

    Chie Executive, Sustrans

    This is the dierence

    we made in 2011The UK took to its eet (and pedals)with a 15% increase in trips on theNational Cycle Network. In total,484 million journeys were madeby 3.3 million individuals. Thehealth benefts o all this activityare worth 442m.

    340,000 pupils in 1,400 schools workedwith us resulting in an 80% increasein the number o children regularlycycling to school and a 100% increasein those cycling every day.

    20,000 households received tailored

    travel inormation leading to increaseso up to 21% in walking, 31% in cyclingand 25% in public transport use, andreductions o up to 11% in car use. Thelargest personalised travel planningprogramme in the UK began in Wales,aiming to reach 100,000 households.

    Even more artworks were added to

    the National Cycle Network, including15 portrait benches eaturingcelebrities and local heroes chosenby local people.

    Over 4,000 people supported our reerange kids pledge calling or 20mphspeed limits as standard in residential

    and built-up areas and greaterinvestment in walking and cyclingroutes particularly to school.

    Communities

    Sometimes the missing jigsaw

    piece can make all the dierence

    Weve been busy lling in the gaps

    on the National Cycle Network and

    its oten the missing link that makes

    all the dierence in peoples

    decision to leave the car at home.

    Many will remember the images

    on national news in November 2009

    o the devastating foods that hit

    Workington and washed away all

    o its bridges, cutting o an entire

    community rom the town centre,

    shops, schools and workplaces.

    We worked with Cumbria County

    Council to replace the Navvies

    bridge and were delighted to open

    the new, purpose-built walking and

    cycling bridge in September 2011.

    As well as reuniting the local

    community, the bridge orms part

    o the popular Hadrians Cycleway,

    drawing tourists to the area

    throughout the year.

    The new bridge in Workington

    is just one example o more than

    70 community schemes throughout

    the country that are enabling people

    to walk or cycle or more o their

    everyday journeys.

    Weve helped neighbourhoods

    design their own streets

    We've worked with a number

    o communities in dierent parts

    o the UK to help them to redesign

    their streets so that trac moves

    more slowly, children are able

    to play outside and neighbourscan socialise.

    In 2011, we continued working with

    an entire neighbourhood, comprising

    over 900 households in eight streets,

    in the London Borough o Haringey.

    When residents and primary school

    children in Kirkcaldy decided to

    make their local street, Katrine

    Crescent, more people-riendly

    and colourul, pupils set to work to

    design a dazzling 'bugwall' artworkas its centre-piece. Meanwhile in

    Elgin, residents and pupils at

    Greenwards Primary School and

    Elgin High School redesigned

    Cockmuir Place to give priority to

    those on oot and bike. This

    included replacing car parking

    spaces with a grassed area where

    people can socialise, and adding a

    wide playul stepping stone

    pavement designed by

    artist Nicola Atkinson.

    A little knowledge goes a long way

    In 2011, we provided travel

    inormation to almost 20,000

    households in Broxbourne, Croxley

    Green and Ipswich, resulting in

    signicant increases in walking,

    cycling and public transport use.

    We also began the largest

    personalised travel planning

    programme in the UK, aiming to

    reach 100,000 households across

    Wales over our years. Thanks to

    unding rom the Welsh Government

    and working with local authorities

    and our partner Socialdata, the

    programme started in Cardi

    where we're aiming to reach

    63,000 households.

    There was urther good news

    or Wales when the First Minister

    announced that there would be an

    Active Travel (Wales) Bill. The Bill

    is a landmark initiative that will place

    a duty on Welsh local authorities

    to provide walking and cycling

    routes. The announcement ollows

    a ve-year campaign by Sustrans

    in Wales.

    Fresh Air Miles events

    Over the summer, more than athousand people took part in

    Sustrans' Fresh Air Miles undraising

    events. There were almost a hundred

    events aimed at amilies across the

    UK including barbeques, picnics,

    treasure hunts and bike rides.

    Our volunteers are spreading

    the word on active travel

    We recruited and trained volunteers

    to help people become more active

    through walking and cycling oreveryday journeys. In 2011, these

    volunteers oered advice and

    ran walking and cycling activities

    in communities, workplaces,

    universities and schools or

    over 1,900 people.

    Our Active Travel Champions

    programme has been granted the

    prestigious London 2012 Inspire

    mark, the badge o the London

    2012 Inspire programme which

    recognises exceptional and

    innovative projects inspired

    by the 2012 Games.

    I thought the inormation

    pack was excellent.

    Because it was tailored

    to what you asked or

    it was really helpul.

    Health

    Enabling people to enjoy

    healthier and more active

    liestyles

    Sustrans runs cycle rides, walks

    and other activities in communities,

    workplaces and schools throughout

    the country to enable people to

    become more active and enjoyhealthier liestyles.

    Through this work weve helped

    thousands o adults become more

    active through cycling and walking.

    In many places where weve worked

    weve seen signicant increases in

    cycling and walking. For example,

    there was an increase o 15% in the

    number o people walking or cycling

    or at least 10 minutes on ve days

    o the week.

    70% o people who use the National

    Cycle Network said that it increased

    their level o physical activity. Using

    the World Health Organisations

    tool, developed with Sustrans, or

    measuring the health benets o

    walking and cycling, the estimated

    annual health benet to all those

    using the Network in 2011 was

    worth 442 million.

    Our work in communities,

    workplaces and universities

    has long-lasting results

    We've worked in universities and

    hospitals in Leeds, Lincoln, Luton,

    Nottingham, Southampton,

    Stockton and Cardi, plus NHS

    Trusts across Wales, to encouragestudents and sta to cycle more by

    oering bike loan schemes, cycle

    training and maintenance classes

    and advice. This has resulted in a

    30% increase in the number o

    people achieving 30 minutes or

    more physical activity on at least

    ve days o the week.

    In 2011, we worked with over 2,400

    employees in 46 workplaces in Blyth.

    The proportion o people choosing

    to drive as their usual way o getting

    to work decreased by 15%.

    In our surveys, 99% o people

    who took part in our community

    and workplace-based activities

    said they would continue to walk

    and cycle in the uture.

    I now ride to the park

    with my kids most

    weekends. Its given

    me a real health boost.

    Getting thenation to work

    A quarter o all trips on theNational Cycle Network in2011 took people to workor education.

    The new bridge is a key

    route in to work or me.

    10 Sustrans Annual Review 2011

    90%o commuters agreethat they save moneyby using the National

    Cycle Network.

    84%o commuters useNational Cycle Networkroutes because theyare convenient.

    Transport is vital in enabling people

    to nd and sustain employment.

    64% o Job Seekers Allowance

    claimants do not have access to a

    car and two out o ve jobseekers

    say lack o aordable transport

    is a barrier to getting a job.

    Although there is no denition o

    Transport Poverty, according to

    government research the poorest

    th o households can spend nearly

    a quarter o their income on the cost

    o motoring.

    Improving accessibility by bike and

    on oot to the places we need to get

    to on a daily basis is one o the most

    equitable ways we can tackle these

    problems, ensuring the least

    advantaged have accessto the learning and employment

    opportunities they need, regardless

    o where they live. For example, in

    Wales we teemed up with Save the

    Children, Age Cymru, and Citizens

    Advice Cymru to highlight transport

    poverty and call or a range o

    measures to give people better

    alternatives to car use.

    In Scotland, ollowing lobbying rom

    Sustrans and others, including civic

    society, the Scottish government

    retained two capital budgets or

    cycling: it continued its 9m

    ring-enced Cycling, Walking and

    Saer Streets sum, and it increased

    Sustrans' grant unding to 25m

    over the next three years. In

    addition, Cycling Scotland also

    retained their 1m a year revenue

    unding or promotion o cycling

    and cycle training through theBikeability scheme.

    Environment

    The transport sector accounts or

    27% o the UK's CO2

    emissions

    but many o our everyday journeys

    are short enough to walk or cycle.

    We take a practical approach

    oering realistic solutions to

    encourage people to walk, cycle

    and use public transport more...and it's working.

    In 2011 there was a 15% increase

    in the number o journeys on the

    National Cycle Network

    An incredible 484 million journeys

    were made by 3.3 million

    individuals.

    I all the journeys made on the

    National Cycle Network in 2011

    had been made by a car, based

    on average emissions, the

    potential carbon dioxide saving

    was 760,363 tonnes.

    We're enabling everyday tasks

    to be done on oot or by bike

    10% o trips on the National Cycle

    Network in 2011 were or shopping

    and 28% were or work or education.

    Reducing car use

    Where we've worked with

    households in Broxbourne,

    Ipswich and Croxley Green,

    providing people with tailored travel

    inormation, we've seen impressive

    reductions in car use:

    Broxbourne: 761 miles per

    household per year equivalent

    to driving rom London to

    Copenhagen

    Ipswich: 544 miles per household

    per year equivalent to driving

    rom Cardi to Geneva

    Croxley Green: 980 miles per

    household per year equivalent

    to driving rom Newcastle to Berlin

    Our work in schools reducedcongestion on the school run

    There was an 11% decrease in

    everyday car journeys to school

    where our ocers worked.

    Enabling political change

    In England, the Department or

    Transport announced that they

    had received 73 bids rom local

    authorities or sustainable transport

    projects in the rst o three rounds

    o bidding or unding rom the Local

    Sustainable Transport Fund, a undrst proposed by Sustrans in 2009.

    In London we launched our

    maniesto or the uture Mayoral

    elections in 2012 A quality o

    lie maniesto or transport in

    our capital.

    A potential 760,000 tonneso CO2 was saved bypeople using the NationalCycle Network.

    It's a nice sensation

    knowing that Im doing

    something good or our

    planet... every time I cycle.

    Creating a school cycling

    revolution

    Sustrans works in schools

    throughout the UK, running a wide

    range o un and curriculum-relatedactivities to encourage pupils to

    be more active.

    In 2011, 11.5 million school

    commuting trips were made on

    the National Cycle Network.

    New trac-ree links were created

    to more than 100 schools, making

    them saer and more accessible or

    240,000 pupils.

    Parents and teachers in schools

    where weve worked elt that cycling

    to school helped children arrive

    more alert and ready or action,

    with potential implications

    or their educational attainment.

    As a result o our work, parents eel

    more condent about letting their

    children cycle to school on roads.

    The legacy o our work in schools

    Even where there was little cycling

    beore, many teachers eel that

    their school has a strong cycling

    culture once our ocers have

    worked with pupils.

    Our work in schools benets

    the wider community too: unders

    say that the schools we work with

    become examples o good practice

    in the local area, raising the prole

    o cycling and encouraging other

    schools to think about travel.

    Hal a million bike and scooter

    journeys made in the UKs biggest

    school cycling event

    In March 2011, we held the UKs

    biggest school cycling and scooting

    event called the Big Pedal, in which

    almost 270,000 pupils made over

    495,000 journeys by bike or scooterover three weeks.

    I each o these journeys replaced

    a car trip, pupils eorts saved

    530 tonnes o CO2

    and there was

    a potential saving to parents o over

    250,000 in petrol costs.

    Free range kids

    In July 2011, we launched our

    campaign to enable children to

    have more reedom rom their

    ront door to travel independently,

    explore and play outdoors. Our

    campaign website provided practical

    resources and advice or amilies,schools and children.

    The campaign also called or 20mph

    speed limits in residential areas and

    dedicated investment in walking and

    cycling inrastructure. This call

    received backing rom more

    than 4,000 people in the space

    o six months.

    My own childhood was

    ree range. In my earlyteens I cycled everywhere

    15 miles to riends, to do

    the weekly shop when my

    mum was ill, you name it

    I did it. And when I wasn't

    on my bike you'd still fnd

    me outdoors. It was my

    natural habitat.
