In September of 2022, Chris Boardman, head of ATE, stated: “England would need up to £18bn to grow cycling equitably between rural and urban areas, against a current pot of up to £3.8bn”, further adding that “targeted increases in active travel to meet the 50% target would cost £9bn, while doing so equally across rural and urban areas would cost double that, adding “this is what it takes to deliver the product.
