Healthy Streets Everyday II
Number of Project Partners:: 14
Lead Borough:: Westminster City Council
CRP Project Lead:: Ross Phillips
Healthy Streets Everyday II will build on the success of MAQF3-funded programme Healthy Streets Everyday, led by Cross River Partnership (CRP).
CRP is very grateful to the Mayor Of London for this latest round of MAQF4 funding.
Healthy Streets Everyday II (HSEII) will address the issue of over-dependence on private vehicles, and the associated issues of poor Air Quality, Environment, Safety, Health, and Wellbeing. HSEII will realise a range of associated opportunities, including increased:
- Active travel
- Walking routes
- Permanent school streets
- Low emission transport infrastructure
- Green space / planting / rain gardens
Evidence shows that transport emissions account for 25% of London’s overall emissions and is one of the largest contributors to London’s poor Air Quality. All of the Healthy Streets Everyday II interventions have been designed to tackle this, delivering multiple benefits simultaneously.
Healthy Streets Everyday II will address poor Air Quality by:
S Supporting safer spaces
T Transforming travel behaviour
R Reducing emissions and exposure
E Engaging with communities
E Embracing technological advances
T Targeting green infrastructure
S Sustaining best monitoring practice
HSE II project activities have been estimated to bring about the following Air Quality emissions reductions over the 3-year project period:
- 77kg of NOx
- 89kg of PM2.5 and 5.02kg of PM10
- 47,356kg of CO2
