United Kingdom
Greater London was the first region in the UK to adopt the Healthy Streets Approach. It has been spreading across England since 2020, supported by the Department for Transport.
All local authorities have been offered Foundation Level training for practitioners and briefings for elected-member. The Department for Transport also commissioned the Healthy Streets Design Check for England and supported training of practitioners across the country to use this tool in the LCWIP programme.
Healthy Streets has now been adopted into policy by authorities across the country and is shaping decision-making in transport and planning in Hampshire, Norfolk, Birmingham, Hertfordshire, Suffolk, Liverpool City Region and Lancashire.
