WALKING
Walking is one of the cheapest, easiest, and simplest forms of transport, which is boosted by there being a range of shops and services accessible within a short walk from Hanstead Park.
It also offers the greatest potential to replace short car and public transport trips, particularly those under a 2-kilometre distance. It provides a healthy alternative to the private car and typically forms a component of many journeys made by public transport or by car.
Direct walking links with wide pavements are provided from Hanstead Park in all directions, which allows you to easily and safely walk to local facilities, schools, bus stops and Bricket Wood Railway Station.
