Biggest increase in cycling in London since records began, reports Transport for London

2018 saw the highest growth in kilometers cycled since monitoring began, increasing almost 5% from the previous year. This is according to new statistics revealed by Transport for London.

The average daily volume of cycling in London is now more than 4 million kilometers.

London’s Walking and Cycling Commissioner, Will Norman, said:

“It is clear that where we have invested in new high-quality routes, people feel safer and more confident cycling on London’s streets. And it is yet more evidence for boroughs across London that investing in walking and cycling infrastructure works – getting more people healthy and active as part of their everyday routine, and making our streets cleaner, greener and safer.”
