Reasons for attending

This event is part of Hertfordshire’s consultation on the new Active Travel Strategy. We will present how we plan to increase the numbers of people walking and cycling in the County, and this event allows officers and Members to hear from the key stakeholders across the county your views on our proposals and other suggestions on how to achieve our objectives of getting more people to use active modes for short journeys.

 With a Cargo bike demonstration zone, market area, delegates will also have the opportunity to see the tools, talk to the organisations and try the bikes and trikes that can help the County get more active.
