Why walking and cycling distance matters.
National and local planning policy asks whether a site gives people a real choice of how to travel. In England the NPPF looks for development in locations that are or can be made sustainable. In Scotland NPF4 and in Wales Planning Policy Wales put walking, cycling and public transport first, and both favour places where everyday needs are within a short walk.
The map shows how far you can walk or cycle from the site in 5, 10, 15 and 20 minutes along real paths and roads, and the shops, schools, healthcare, bus stops and stations inside each band. It is a quick first view of the evidence that goes into a Transport Statement or Assessment.
