<p>This Government’s approach to decarbonisation is not to stop people doing things,
but to enable people to do the same things differently and more sustainably. The Government
set out its plans for decarbonising transport in its 2021 Transport Decarbonisation
Plan (TDP) and has continued to build on these plans.</p><p>The Government agrees
that funding safe active travel infrastructure can enable more people to choose walking,
cycling and wheeling for short journeys, and that this in turn can reduce carbon emissions.
The TDP includes an assessment of the carbon savings that are projected to be delivered
by the Government’s current and projected future support for active travel. This support
includes the investment of around £3 billion over the current Parliament, much of
which will directly support the roll-out of safe and attractive active travel infrastructure.</p><p>
