    Andy Burnham, the mayor of Greater Manchester, and Chris Boardman, the region’s cycling and walking commissioner, are calling on the government to back plans for an 1,800-mile network of protected routes for pedestrians and cyclists.

    They claim the Bee Network initiative could increase journeys on foot or by bike by 2.5m a day, cut some journey times by 50% and save the NHS £6.73bn by improving people’s health.
