The capital scored an average of 69 out of 100 in the PeopleForBikes' City Ratings, though four boroughs Hackney, Islington, Southwark, and Westminster all made the world top 20 when ranked individually.
Campaigners said Britain's score showed how we had failed to pursue the Gear Change strategy outlined by Boris Johnson four years ago. This sought to build on the increase in cycling during the pandemic by setting a target of half of all journeys in towns and cities being cycled or walked by 2030.
