[H+T--Friends] Webinars of Interest

by Ed Christopher

These may be of interest. This past summer I helped get the word out for FHWA regarding technical assistance being offered to agencies interested in implementing their Framework for Better Integrating Health into Transportation Corridor Planning <https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/planning/health_in_transportation/planning_framewo…>. Six agencies were selected to receive technical assistance, but the strong interest far exceeded the funding available. As a new option, FHWA is offering /virtual /technical assistance to any transportation agency interested in using the Framework to incorporate multi-modal access, improve health outcomes, and enhance community considerations. This webinar series will describe the Framework and how it can be used in corridor planning, introduce corridor studies where the Framework has been used successfully, and provide a forum for practitioner discussion and information exchange. Access to the Registration Page for each webinar is provided below. Feel free to pass this along to your colleagues. *Webinar 1: Making Healthy Connections Framework - Getting Started* Wednesday, November 28, 2018 from 1:00-2:30pm Registration URL: https://bowen-icfi.adobeconnect.com/framework_for_healthy_corridor_planning… *Webinar 2: Making Healthy Connections Framework – Setting Goals* Tuesday, December 11, 2018 from 1:00-2:30pm Registration URL: https://bowen-icfi.adobeconnect.com/framework_for_healthy_corridor_planning… For more information contact Victoria Martinez of FHWA at victoria.martinez(a)dot.gov -- Ed Christopher Transportation Planning Consultant 708-269-5237

Re: [H+T--Friends] New (world first?) Professor of Transport and Health

by Frank, Lawrence

Hello - I second Jenny's Congratulations to Adrian for this wonderful new position! To add a bit of history - there are other positions and even joint degree programs (e.g. UCLA, Portland State, U Michigan and others) that have at various levels integrated transportation and health for quite some Time. This new one in Scotland contributes significantly to the ongoing formalization of the links between transportation and health as a field within academia. My position directly linking planning and health at the University of British Columbia has been cross appointed for well over a decade between the School of Population and Public Health in the Faculty of Medicine and the School of Community and Regional Planning in the Faculty of Applied Science which is where Engineering and Architecture and Landscape Architecture are located. It is partially funded through a transportation endowment from the Bombardier Foundation currently managed by a Faculty of Medicine. The sole purpose of my position over the last decade is to research (http://health-design.spph.ubc.ca) and teach on the links between planning and health. I and others have worked at the nexus between transportation and health for a long time now. For me it has been the entirety of my 30 year Career starting with my dissertation research in Seattle linking active transportation with land use mix and density which eventually led to Walkscore after we published the results in the form of the first "walkability map" in the Seattle Times newspaper. Susan Handy And Ruth Steiner also had some work on this topic around that time). I was told at the time by senior planning colleagues that studying non-motorized travel was a bad idea and too "pedestrian" and there would be no money or resources in it. Five years later the U.S. Surgeon General came out with the report on the population level health benefits of moderate physical activity (aka walking) and the rest is history. I am happy I looked past this well intended advice and have seen this field grow from literally nothing to where it is today. It is a true delight to see more and more of this type of formal integration taking place between planning and health and I think there are others out there with positions that make this connection directly through their academic appointments. It is now timely that we share our experiences and help one another navigate what is atrue interdisciplinary experience - which has many important trade-offs to consider. These often include having two homes in disparate parts of universities that otherwise are often not well connected dealing with resources and funding, accountability and service, promotions and raises, where you publish and are visibility or not, and many other considerations. Universities tout interdisciplinarity - yet are poorly equipped to help those that try. Perhaps we can work together on ways to help maximize the success of these early efforts to make this linkage a success! It is not as easy as it sounds ... but it is worthwhile. Cheers, Larry Frank, UBC ________________________________________ From: H+T--Friends [h+t--friends-bounces(a)chrispy.net] on behalf of Mindell, Jenny [j.mindell(a)ucl.ac.uk] Sent: Wednesday, September 12, 2018 8:58 AM To: 'h+t--friends(a)chrispy.net' Subject: [H+T--Friends] New (world first?) Professor of Transport and Health Congratulations to Adrian Davis, new Professor of Transport and Health at Napier University, Edinburgh, Scotland, UK Adrian will be well known to most people in the transport and health field, as he has combined transport planning and public health as both a practitioner and an academic (truly multi- and inter-disciplinary work). He will continue working with colleagues at the University of Western England and his roles as Co-Chair (Science) of the Transport and Health Study Group (THSG) and as Associate Editor of the Journal of Transport and Health.
