ULEZ has cut children's school car rides - study bbc.in/3ATC7FC

4 in 10 children in Central London who travelled to school by car switched to walking, cycling or public transport, following the introduction of the Ultra-Low Emission Zone (ULEZ). MRC Epidemiology Unit researchers say children living over half a mile from school felt the biggest impact 👇

(1/6) 🚸London’s ULEZ is changing school commutes! Our new study shows kids aged 6-9 in ULEZ areas are 3x more likely to shift behaviours to walk, bike or take public transport to school than in non-ULEZ zones. 🚶‍♂️🚲 Discover how in our IJBNPA paper tinyurl.com/ykxtmn8b

(5/6) 👏🎉 Thanks to Cambridge University, Cambridge Biomedical Campus, MRC Epidemiology Unit , Esther van Sluijs Jenna Panter and our amazing collaborators from Queen Mary University of London, @ImperialCollege, and others for making the @CHILLPollution study possible!

Good news: more children are walking, cycling and taking public transport to school since the introduction of the ULEZ in central London. Not only is the ULEZ helping tackle London’s toxic air, but it is also encouraging families to be more active. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
