They found that over time, inactive commuters had a much higher risk of death, disease, and mental health issues compared with those who cycled or walked.

"The more you do it, the safer you are," Jim Walker, the founder and director of the UK-based Walk21 Foundation which advises national and local governments on pedestrian-friendly policies, told Euronews Health.

Researchers accounted for potential factors that could affect the results, such as people’s pre-existing conditions, age, gender, and socioeconomic traits.

The findings align with previous studies that show a strong link between the built environment and health outcomes such as diabetes and obesity.

Study authors said the finding "reinforces the need for safer cycling infrastructure," and the overall results have "wider global relevance to efforts to reduce carbon emissions and shift to more active and sustainable travel modes".

Paris, for example, has added bike lanes and aims to make the entire city suitable for cyclists by 2026, though the plan has faced some delays.
