What is the project about?
This project will promote newly-installed walking and cycling infrastructure across the West Midlands to help everyone get around more easily.
We will be working in a number of neighbourhoods close to the infrastructure to support local people to travel actively and sustainably.
As part of this work, we will also be sharing information about other organisations working across the West Midlands to encourage cycling and walking.
