Communities that support walking and biking help people be physically active, promote
health and can lower health care costs. This Web Forum will showcase different “active
transportation” initiatives that make walking and biking for daily travel an easier and
more attractive option for children and adults. Presenters will highlight projects that
had received funding from Communities Putting Prevention to Work
(
CPPW)<http://phi.us5.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=a84b40a6e55f8e0b7cdf…
grants focused on increasing physical activity and preventing obesity.
Nick Sims will discuss the Jefferson County, Alabama CPPW initiative which involved
several concurrent efforts focused on creating walkable communities. This included the
adoption of a SmartCode zoning ordinance, Complete Streets resolutions, a new County-wide
Greenway Master Plan, and policies supportive of Safe Routes to School. Much of this work
continues today through the County’s Health Action Partnership, its member organizations,
and specifically the Livable Communities Priority Group.
Vikrant Sood will provide an overview of policy, systems, and environmental strategies
undertaken in San Diego, California to promote active living. These included the
development of innovative technical tools and assistance and incentive programs. One
highlight was the development of San Diego’s Healthy Communities Atlas, a tool which
enables communities to see the specific relationships between numerous neighborhood
characteristics that impact the health of their communities. Vikrant will highlight
initiatives targeted at low- and moderate-income households, people of color and people
with disabilities.
Julia Murphy will highlight efforts in San Antonio, Texas, focusing on the B-Cycle
project, which furthers the City of San Antonio’s twin goals of enhancing both
environmental and public health by providing a sustainable transportation option. She will
discuss how the city is transforming itself into a bicycle-friendly community with a
Bicycle Master Plan and Complete Streets Policy.
