Transport sector decarbonisation is a Scottish Government policy aim. Recent legislation and funding announcements are beginning a shift away from support for habitual car use. Sustainable transport is augmented by co-benefits of active travel itself... Read More about Making the shift to sustainable transport in Scotland.

Beyond cycle lanes and large-scale infrastructure: a scoping review of initiatives that groups and organisations can implement to promote cycling for the Cycle Nation Project (2020)
Journal Article
Kelly, P., Williamson, C., Baker, G., Davis, A., Broadfield, S., Coles, A., …Gill, J. M. (2020). Beyond cycle lanes and large-scale infrastructure: a scoping review of initiatives that groups and organisations can implement to promote cycling for the Cy

Background/objectives: Cycling has well-established positive relationships with health. Evidence suggests that large-scale infrastructure and built-environment initiatives to promote cycling are likely to be necessary but not sufficient to maximise c...

Background: Opportunities for working adults to accumulate recommended physical activity levels (at least 150min of moderate intensity physical activity in bouts of at least 10 min throughout the week) may include the commute to work. Systematic revi... Read More about Evaluation of an intervention to promote walking during the commute to work: a cluster randomised controlled trial.

How commuting affects subjective wellbeing (2019)

This paper presents findings from analyses of the impact of commuting (time and mo... Read More about How commuting affects subjective wellbeing.

Vicious or virtuous circles? Exploring the vulnerability of drivers to break low urban speed limits (2016)
Journal Article
Tapp, A., Nancarrow, C., Davis, A., & Jones, S. (2016). Vicious or virtuous circles? Exploring the vulnerability of drivers to break low urban speed limits. Transportation Research Part A: Policy and Practice, 91, 195-212. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tra.20

Levels of support for 20 mph limits in Great Britain are consistently high. However, these positive attitudes are not translating into similarly positive behaviour changes in terms of complying with these new speed limits.Recent research from the aut...
