<p>The Department made clear, in its 2018 response to the Cycling and Walking Investment
Strategy Safety Review, that local councils should invest around 15 per cent of their
local transport infrastructure funding on safe and efficient cycling and walking infrastructure.
The Department continues to encourage local authorities to make use of the Transforming
Cities Fund and other relevant national funding streams to support cycling and walking
schemes and engages regularly with them in the development of their LCWIPs (Local
Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plans). Departmental officials have had discussions
from time to time with representatives from the Local Government Association to discuss
local authorities’ support for cycling and walking.</p><p> </p>
