[H+T--Friends] Webinars of Interest

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_framework/the_framework/>. 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.
