Active Travel incentives are being recommended for those who ride their bikes to work, after a new report suggests Active Travel is on the decline.

The A.C.T. has one of the highest cycling rates in the country.

But new figures show, a nine percent drop in the number of active riders in Canberra, since 2011.

The Australia Institute says – less than one percent of federal spending on roads, has gone towards infrastructure for bikes and scooters.

It’s urging the commonwealth to inject billions of dollars to build safer roads for cyclists… and introduce tax rebates for those who ride to work.
