2/23 50% of journeys in #Harrow were made by sustainable modes ( #walking, #cycling or public transport) our 2020 Healthy Streets Scorecard revealed.

11/23 There were 6.7 pedestrian and cyclist serious and fatal casualties in #Harrow per 100,000 daily journey stages on average annually, less than the Greater London average of 7.6. (3 year average using data from 2016-2018.) #roadsafety https://www.datawrapper.de/_/N6OVT/
12/23 Let’s also look at how #Harrow is performing against some of the Local Implementation Plan 3 targets the @MayorofLondon has set the borough in order to help achieve the Mayor’s #Transport Strategy priorities for #London.
13/23 Every London borough has LIP3 targets for a range of indicators and these are different for central, inner & outer London. You can find out each borough’s targets in a TfL spreadsheet named ‘LIP3 MTS Borough outcomes’: http://planning.data.tfl.gov.uk
14/23 #Harrow’s Local Implementation Plan target for sustainable mode share is 50% for 2021 & 64% for 2041, which the borough was on track to achieve based on the last London Travel Demand Survey. (Harrow had a 53% sustainable mode share: LTDS 3 year-average 2017/18-2019/20.)
15/23 #Harrow is not on track to achieve its LIP targets for the % of residents doing at least the 20 mins of #activetravel a day they need to stay healthy. Only a quarter achieved this (LTDS 3 year-average 2017/18-2019/20), whereas the target for 2021 is 34% & 70% for 2041.
16/23 @harrow_council’s Transport LIP3 stated that “This will be an extremely difficult target for #Harrow to achieve". It noted that #obesity & #diabetes levels are high & activity levels are low in the borough.
17/23 “The total prevalence of people in Harrow with #diabetes…is estimated to be 10.5% of the population; this is the second highest local authority prevalence in England.” - #Harrow Transport Local Implementation Plan 2019/20- 2021/22
18/23 None of #Harrow’s residents lived within 400m of the London-wide strategic cycle network as of November 2020. The borough’s LIP target is 10% for 2021 and 51% by 2041.

19/23 There were 56 deaths and serious injuries (KSIs) from road collisions in #Harrow in 2019. The borough’s LIP target for KSIs in 2022 is 38 and zero for 2041.
20/23 In 2018, traffic levels in #Harrow were 559 million annual vehicle kilometres. At that point, the borough was on a trajectory to meet its LIP target of 568m annual vehicle km by 2021. Its 2041 target is 540m annual km, a 5% reduction on its 2015 #traffic levels.
21/23 In 2019, there were 103,572 licensed #cars owned in #Harrow. This chart suggests the borough is not on track to reduce car ownership to LIP target levels of 100,600 cars by 2021 and 100,800 by 2041.

22/23 In 2016, 141,800 tonnes of CO2, 390 tonnes of NOx, 48 tonnes of PM10 and 25 tonnes of PM2.5 were emitted from road #transport in #Harrow. The borough’s LIP targets for 2021 are 124,800 tonnes of CO2, 210 tonnes of NOx, 43 tonnes of PM10 and 21 tonnes of PM2.5.
23/23 @harrow_council declared a Climate Emergency in 2019.
Our next #HealthyStreetsScorecard results for all #London boroughs will be published this July.
