Active Living Transportation incorporates physical activity into daily routines.
Walking or biking to work or school is an example of Active Living Transportation. The Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³» can help your community promote active living by:
- Updating municipal plans to incorporate sidewalks and crosswalks into street development
- Increasing access to connected walking and biking networks
- Connecting and promoting trail systems
- Incorporating street landscaping and signage
- Taking other effective approaches to calm traffic and improve safety along identified routes
In some cases, the Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³» can also help your municipality secure state grant dollars for Active Living Transportation projects! To learn more, please contact the Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»'s Transportation & Community Planner, Blake Barnard.
