Document summary
This evidence review used systematic search, inclusion and synthesis processes to develop an understanding of the current knowledge base on the relationships between transport and health and wellbeing. Active transport (e.g. cycling or walking) also has arole to play in improving public health, but this is beyond the scope of this review as substantive evidence in this area already exists. Work on air pollution was also omitted for this reason.
Main focus is on the 3 factors linking transport, health and wellbeing: – access to health services, particularly for vulnerable groups including older people; – how modes of transport affect physical and mental health; -transport as a facilitator for social interactions and social inclusion
