Figure 9.11 shows the average number of minutes of active travel per day per adult Londoner from 2008/9 to 2014/15. The total number of minutes has increased on average by 2 minutes over this period, from 19 minutes to 21 minutes. Figure 9.11 also shows the relative contribution of walking and cycling to average minutes spent travelling actively, where the majority of active travel in London is walking. In 2014/15, approximately 20 of the 21 minutes travelling actively were done on foot (93.3 per cent). In 2014/15, the proportion of active travel done by bicycle has increased from 4.7 per cent in 2008/09 to 6.7 per cent in 2014/15. 180 Travel in London, Report 8

This ambition is for 70 per cent of adults in London to achieve 150 minutes of active travel per week in periods of ten minutes or more. It is not possible to directly extract weekly physical activity levels of London’s population from the one-day LTDS survey and so it is not possible to directly measure the proportion of Londoners achieving 150 minutes of active travel per week in periods of ten minutes or more. Physical activity recommendations are to get some activity on most days; dividing the 150 minutes into periods of ten minutes spread over the week translates into achieving two ten-minute periods of activity each day. The Active People Survey collects data on activity over a four-week period and this indicates that people achieving two ten-minute periods of activity in one day are highly likely to achieve the 150 minutes of activity per week. This can therefore be taken as a proxy measure of LTDS data for adults meeting their physical activity needs. This approach is quite conservative, given that 27 per cent of adults do not manage three ten-minute periods of activity in a week in London from any activity source, not just active travel. Figure 9.12 shows that, on average across the age groups, 34 per cent of adults in London achieve two ten-minute periods of active travel per day. The proportion of adults falling into this category would therefore need to approximately double to meet the ambition by 2050. Travel in London report 7 showed that car ownership was a strong determinant of adults travelling actively in London, so declining car ownership could be an important contributor to meeting the goal. 181 Travel in London, Report 8
