Results are from logistic regression models estimated with Generalised Estimating Equations to account for the dependency across repeated measurements (unstructured working correlation matrix). The model is adjusted for bus stop proximity, perceived street connectivity, enjoyment of the neighbourhood for walking/cycling, personal safety, ethnicity, self-rated health, family affluence and free school meal status at wave 1
