[TRBHealth] Mortality Implications from Active Mobility Investment

Hi all, I hope you are doing well. Relatively new member of the TRB Health committee, but I thought you might be interested in our recent publication in the Journal of Urban Health. The big picture is that climate-focused transportation policies can also have substantial health impacts when investments are made in active mobility. We examined the potential mortality impacts from increased investment in walking and cycling infrastructure under the Transportation Climate Initiative cap-and-investment program for the Northeast for a number of different scenarios. Here's a link to the publication and I've also attached a pdf. Let me know if you have any questions. https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11524-020-00510-1 All best, Matt ----- Matthew Raifman, MPP PhD Student | Environmental Health Boston University School of Public Health Email: mraifman(a)bu.edu Twitter: @mraify <https://twitter.com/mraify>
