installing sidewalks on all streets in a typical North American community
would increase per capita walking and cycling by 0.097 average daily miles
and reduce automobile travel by 1.142 daily vehicle-miles, about 12 miles of
reduced driving for each mile of increased active travel.

Subject: [UTSG] Invitation to contribute to Department for Transport Rapid
Evidence Assessment
Sent by John Parkin on behalf of Sal Mohammed at NatCen
Dear Sir/Madam
I hope this email finds you well. NatCen Social Research is conducting a
rapid evidence assessment (REA) on behalf of the UK Department for Transport
on the effectiveness of cycling and walking interventions. The REA will be
part of the government's call for evidence on this topic which will help
inform a wider Cycling and Walking investment strategy.
As part of the REA, NatCen Social Research wish to engage with leading
experts who may know of studies reporting on the impact of interventions to
promote cycling and walking on risk, perceived risk and participation (in
cycling or walking). Given your expertise in this area, we would be most
grateful for your support in identifying work you believe would be
includable within the REA. If you are able to share links to relevant
literature or attachments of recommended studies, that would be very
helpful.
If you require any further information regarding this request, please do not
hesitate to contact me at your convenience.
Yours sincerely
Sal Mohammed
