Abstract
Non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, cancer and mental health problems account for 60% of deaths globally. Poor diet and lack of physical activity play an important role in increasing the chance of developing these diseases. Physical inactivity alone is estimated to account for around 1 in 10 deaths worldwide, comparable to the impact of smoking. Seventy thousand premature deaths in the UK alone could be avoided each year if diets matched nutritional guidelines.
In the face of these statistics it would seem intuitive that everyone should strive to make individual choices to eat a healthy diet and adopt an active lifestyle. However, we don't make such choices in isolation and our diets and activity levels are driven as much by the broader social, cultural, economic and physical environment in which we live by as our personal attitudes and beliefs. CEDAR aims to improve our knowledge of the population-level factors that influence these diet and activity behaviours. Generating a greater understanding about these determinants is an important step in developing interventions to help populations adopt sustainable healthy behaviours. CEDAR also aims to evaluate the impact of such interventions both on short term behaviour change and, in the longer term, on health outcomes. However, not all interventions that impact on diet and physical activity are designed with changing these behaviours as their primary purpose. Indeed our physical activity behaviour is strongly influenced by the structure of the built environment around us. Therefore CEDAR also undertakes evaluations of interventions such as changes to the transport infrastructure that may impact on commuter and leisure physical activity levels as a by-product rather than their primary objective.
The evidence we gather will help politicians, health professionals and society at large make better decisions about how to improve health for the whole population, whether it is through direct public health interventions, or wider ways that influence how we live, travel and work.

Technical Summary
Our overall goal is to provide the evidence-base to inform interventions aimed at shifting population-level distributions of dietary and physical activity behaviour. We will achieve our aims through interconnected research themes which each employ a range of methods and experimental designs including analysis of quantitative and qualitative data from observational, interventional and natural experiment studies, modelling and evidence synthesis. We will study environmental and policy approaches to population physical activity change, specifically aiming to quantify the overall and distributional effects of interventions and understand related patterns and mechanisms of behaviour change. In our health geography programme, we will develop and apply methods to understand the dynamic use of the environment and its role as a determinant of physical activity and dietary behaviours. We will study the pattern, correlates and determinants of change in physical activity levels through childhood and use the results to develop and evaluate population-level interventions. Our dietary public health research will identify and measure socioeconomic determinants of dietary behaviour and the mechanisms giving rise to social and spatial patterning of diet quality. This programme is closely linked to our work on public health economics, focused on investigating the correlates, determinants and consequences of diet, physical activity and obesity and the cost-effectiveness of interventions that may promote healthy behaviours. In the second quinquennium of CEDAR we will develop two themes. Dietary public health research will be expanded to include policy, environmental and intervention development approaches to obesity prevention, particularly in infants and young children. Public health modelling will be further developed to better estimate the population impact of interventions and explore agent based modelling of behaviour change to inform intervention development and data collection.
Planned Impact
Our research will contribute to multiple economic and societal impacts. The pathways to impact statement (attachment) describes the actions that we will take to ensure these benefits are realised. Our overall strategy for translation and knowledge transfer is in the case for support (section 8).
Immediate and medium term impacts:
CEDAR research findings are relevant to many aspects of the physical, social and economic environment. Relevant policy areas include travel and transport, the regulation and taxation of food, use of green spaces, physical education and meal provision in schools. CEDAR will contribute to the evidence in these areas and directly influence practice and policies at local, regional, national and international level, as well as via bodies such as NICE and Public Health England. This will be achieved through existing and new relationships ranging from NHS infant feeding coordinators to senior civil servants.
Trade unions, NGOs, and activists represent other potential audiences for our evidence outputs and may present research opportunities such as the current on-going evaluation of the Sustrans Connect2 initiative. Our evidence is also relevant to industry. Findings may inform the Responsibility Deal in food and physical activity and interventions to encourage active travel and physical activity will be relevant to improving workforce health. Beyond the application of evidence, our expertise can be applied to enhance the effectiveness of evaluation of complex public health interventions - a requirement at local, national and international levels.
We recognise that impact is a 2-way process, with our research priorities shaped by public health needs. We will therefore pursue a partnership approach, co-producing tools and publications and working closely with public health practitioners to evaluate real world interventions. Our work developing research and evaluation methods, whether in natural experiments or use of GPS technology, have applications beyond academia as organisations seek to effectively measure interventions. Partnership working will also help to support the research and evaluation capacity of organisations through, for example, contributing to training courses and material delivered through bodies such as erpho in its role in Public Health England.
Longer term impacts:
Our longer term economic and societal impacts will come from the implementation of policies that have been influenced by our contribution to the body of research. Increased physical activity and improved diet have substantial potential population health benefits by reducing the burden of non-communicable disease. Moves towards active and sustainable transport can bring environmental and health benefits including reduced road traffic deaths, improved urban environment, and mitigation of climate change. In the light of the global obesity epidemic and pressure on food supply, moves toward sustainable and lower calorie diets are required. Our research into dietary behaviours has potential impacts in areas such as infant feeding practices, the national curriculum, and food taxation and labelling. Greater understanding of the economic drivers of dietary behaviour is also relevant to efforts to reduce health outcome inequality.
These benefits would be felt by governments, both economically and in terms of the effectiveness and sustainability of public services such as the NHS. Employers and industry can also draw benefits from population-level interventions, through improved employee health, wellbeing and efficiency. In England, the costs of lost productivity have been estimated at £6.5 billion / year from sickness absence and premature death. However, physically active workers take 27% fewer sick days. Finding effective interventions to improve diet and physical activity levels will ultimately benefit the whole population, both in the UK and abroad, in terms of health, wellbeing and improved quality of life.

The tool has been designed to assist transport planners and policy makers in the planning of cycling networks and identification of interventions to promote cycling. The tool comprises an interactive map that shows the current and potential future distribution of commuter cycling trips under different potential future growth scenarios. It provides numerical and graphical outputs, including estimated numbers of cyclists in an area, and along desire lines and routes. 3.35 The Propensity to Cycle Tool can assist with the preparation of Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plans and will be of particular assistance in defining potential demand for cycling, identifying the most promising routes and areas for investment, and estimating future capacity needs for route and area-based measures. Further information about how the tool can be used to support the preparation of Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plans is included in the Department's Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan guidance. |

| Impact | Propensity to Cycle Tool 4.8 It is strongly recommended that authorities make use of the DfT-funded Propensity to Cycle Tool (PCT) through the LCWIP process. The PCT is a freely-available online resource that has been designed to help with the strategic planning of cycling networks. 4.9 The tool comprises an interactive map that shows the current and potential future distribution of commuter cycling trips under different potential future growth scenarios. It provides numerical and graphical outputs, including estimated numbers of cyclists in an area, along straight 'desire' lines and along routes. 4.10 Using the 2011 Census Journey to Work data, the PCT can assist with the preparation of LCWIPs at a number of different stages, including: • planning the cycle network: - mapping trip origins and destinations (trip generation) - identifying desire lines for cycle trips (trip distribution) - allocating trips to specific routes (trip assignment) • defining potential demand for cycling across the geographical area covered by LCWIPs, under different scenarios • assisting with scheme prioritisation 15 4.11 The PCT will be of particular assistance in defining potential demand for cycling, identifying the most promising routes and areas for investment, and estimating future capacity needs for route and area-based measures. 4.12 Further information about the application of the Propensity to Cycle Tool can be found in Annex A. The tool can be found at: www.pct.bike. |

| Title | Changing Commutes model |
| Description | Agent based model of cycle commuting for three different English contexts. The model represents the dynamics of social influence, social learning and road traffic incidents on the loss and accumulation of cycling safety gear, on associations of cycling with danger, and on the number of cyclists. The model will be made publicly available on OpenABM with the publication of the article describing it. |

| Title | ITHIM |
| Description | ITHIM refers to a range of related models and tools developed at CEDAR to perform integrated assessment of the health effects of transport scenarios and policies at the urban and national level. The health effects of transport policies are modelled through the changes in physical activity, road traffic injury risk, and exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) air pollution. Some versions of ITHIM also predict changes in CO2 emissions. ITHIM is being used in research and by health and transport professionals to estimate the health impacts of scenarios, compare the impact of travel patterns in different places, and model the impact of interventions. ITHIM works either as a stand-alone model, or it can be linked with other models (e.g. transport, health, economic). |
| Type Of Material | Computer model/algorithm |
| Year Produced | 2012 |
| Provided To Others? | Yes |
| Impact | Fed into transport plans in London, California and Portland. ITHIM has is being used in research projects in Brazil, India, and Malaysia. It has been sent to research & practitioner groups in Ireland, Taiwan, Singapore, Canada, and multiple groups in the US. It has been used to generate results for reports (for British Cycling and CTC) that have attracted media and parliamentary attention. |

| Results and Impact | Dr Esther van Sluijs joined the Expert Working Group CMO PA guidelines update (Children & Young People). The role of the EWGs is to review new evidence for physical activity and certain health outcomes (i.e. the effect of physical activity on the risk factors for cardiovascular disease) and make a judgement on whether this evidence suggests a change to the current physical activity recommendations for their group (e.g. Under 5s). It is also the EWGs responsibility to review existing UK and international approaches to the implementation of national physical activity guidelines, and surveillance of physical activity and make any recommendations to improve the way UK do this. Once this stage is complete, EWGs will write a technical report with their draft physical activity recommendations. These are then open to feedback at the Scientific Consensus Meeting (SCM). EWG members will be participating in the SCM, helping to present their findings, support small workshops and clarify challenging issues from other scientists and stakeholders.Once the draft physical activity recommendations have been discussed at the SCM, the EWGs will refine and put forward a final technical report for their group with the updated UK physical activity recommendations. These will then be used by the four UK CMOs to write the updated physical activity guidelines. |

We made decisions on the next version of the HEAT tool, including changing the dose response curve shape, the relative risks used, and the statistical value of a human life. The HEAT tool is intended as a simple model for use by in policy formulation and by practitioners. The tool and values from it is widely used in policy formulation (including by the UK Department of Transport), by practitioners (e.g. Sustrans in the UK), and in academic papers. This workshop has led to changes in the values used in the tool. My own more sophisticated (and hence more complicated and with greater data requirements) health model (ITHIM) was used as a comparative model. |

| Results and Impact | Prof Martin White was invited to speak at the Research and Applied Epidemiology Scientific Conference 2017 held at Warwick University. The talk was extremely well received, with many interesting follow up questions asked. His presentation abstract explained: To be useful for policy decisions, imperfect research that is timely may be of more value than perfect research that is too late. However, the notion that the best research is unattainable to routinely inform public health practice is flawed. With good planning, strong relationships between research and practice, and high levels of engagement in co-producing research, timely and policy relevant research can be undertaken to meet the needs of public health policy and practice. I will explore some of the principles that should underpin policy relevant public health evidence-generation, and give examples of such research. |

Urban structure is very closely linked to the mobility patterns of city residents. An understanding of city mobility patterns has a major impact on residents well being both directly and indirectly. Access to employment, education and health and recreation facilities have to be enabled by safe, green and inclusive transport systems. Reliable data on mobility patterns is a pre requisite to understanding many complex issues that are faced by cities today. Census 2011 has for the first time in India included two questions on travel: We have summarized the responses to this questions in a brief report. A round table discussion on "Travel to work in India: Future concerns" was organized on 15th May, 2018 at IIT Delhi. The participants discussed the following themes: I Travel and city Structure with reference to Pedestrians, and bicyclists. Broadly focusing on the following questions: What lessons do we have from census travel patterns? Are we designing cities for pedestrians and bicyclists? II City Structure, planning and regulatory measures with reference to trips by para transit systems, bus and metro systems. Broadly focusing on the following questions: What lessons do we have from census travel patterns? Are we planning cities and governance structures for public transport systems?
