Ways to incorporate cycling, running or walking into your journey
We know that many in our community may wish to find alternative means of transport to campus rather than relying solely on public transport. Wherever possible, we encourage and aim to support staff and students in making their transport to campus - and across London - more active.
Implementing some level of active travel into your commute has been shown to improve your health and can bring significant environmental benefits.
It may not be possible to remove public transport entirely. However, through combining public transport with some element of active travel - whether it’s walking from a hub station or cycling part of the way - there are opportunities to find a way that is best for yourself, your health, and the environment.
