Only one of the four projects in the running for the People's £50m prize provides nationwide benefits. Not only that, its healthy, environmentally friendly and can be enjoyed by everyone for free.
The sustainable transport charity Sustran is bidding for the money to open up new walking and cycling networks for 79 communities. They will do this mainly be creating bridges and walkways where current use is hampered by obstacles such as busy roads, railways and rivers. Finding a solution to these suddenly opens up new opportunities for many more people to leave their cars at home and use their legs.
The Pub Walker will be casting its vote to support the Sustrans' Connect2 project and encourages everyone who would like to see improved walking and cycling routes to do the same.
Voting closes 10 December and can be done on-line or by telephone or text.
You can find out more at Vote for New Walkways and Cycleways.
