	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/05/2024 answer text <p>Active Travel England is providing £50 million to expand Bikeability cycle training to a million more young people between 2023 and 2025 as part of a projected £3 billion investment in active travel up to 2025. This will help to improve standards of cycling behaviour by teaching young cyclists the rules of the road. In addition, a THINK! Campaign, with significant media investment, supported the changes made to The Highway Code in January 2022. The campaign aimed to raise awareness and understanding of the changes, helping to improve road safety for people walking cycling and horse riding. It included messaging on the hierarchy of road users, making clear that those road users who can do the greatest harm have the greatest responsibility to reduce the danger or threat they may pose to others.</p><p>There are no further plans to develop a targeted educational campaign to improve cyclists’ knowledge of pedestrian safety.</p> answering member constituency Hexham answering member printed Guy Opperman question first answered 16/05/2024 14:48:56 answering member 4142 label Biography information for Guy Opperman
