Re: [H+T--Friends] H+T--Friends Digest, Vol 60, Issue 2

Health impact modeling of active transportation probably would have been a more fitting title. If I'm not mistaken this will focus on quantitative approaches (HEAT, ITHIM, etc).

Woodcock appears to be an expert on bicycling: "I lead the development of the National Propensity to Cycle for the Department for Transport," and writes articles on cycling: "Reframing Safety: An analysis of perceptions of cycle safety clothing; Health effects of the London bicycle sharing system: Health impact modelling study". Sonja also appears to have some connection to transportation, as in "Physical Activity through Sustainable Transport Approaches (PASTA): protocol for a multi-centre, longitudinal study." But once again, there's the bicycling connection: "Economic impact of reduced mortality due to increased cycling." As I've noted before, transportation is about more than bicycling. Since in the US, bicycling only accounts for about 1.5% of journeys to work, it's an outlier in transportation consideration in the US.

Best regards, Eloisa *** Register at http://tiny-url.org/mZFwfZ84 Health Impact Assessments ? Their Role in Transportation Planning Wednesday, May 4, 2016, 11:00 a.m. EDT Description Health Impact Assessments (HIAs) are a means of assessing the health impacts of policies, plans, and projects in various economic sectors using quantitative, qualitative, and participatory methods. Transportation systems contribute to traffic injuries, air pollution, diseases resulting from physical inactivity, and noise. However, these risks can be reduced by "healthy transport policies" that promote walking and cycling. In April, 2015, the Transportation Research Board (TRB) and American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) held a joint conference on ?Moving Active Transportation to Higher Ground" conference-Ihre Daten wurden abgeschnitten.
