A transport and health geography perspective on walking and cycling

Abstract

The impetus for this Viewpoint is to explore the ways in which health and transport geographers can add to understanding of the inter-relationship between health and non-motorised travel, through interpretation of a conference session titled: "Walking and Cycling - The contributions of health and transport geography" from the Royal Geographical Society (with the Institute of British Geographers) annual conference in 2013 convened by the authors, then to highlight where geographers can contribute theoretically, methodologically and practically.
