Non Motorised Transport (NMT) can offer increased mobility to large parts of the population, safeguard the accessibility of otherwise congested cities and provide freedom of movement to rich and poor, young and old. NMT not only offers environmental advantages but provides a holistic range of benefits to both the individual and the city. This includes health, equity, better air quality, poverty alleviation, road safety, liveable cities and equal opportunities to all irrespective of their socio-economic background.
