A colleague passed me this article. It does a nice job of making the connection--in one

Driving better health through transportation
In the world of transportation, the focus is most often on creating mobility and
accessibility. But according to Minnesota Department of Health Commissioner Edward
Ehlinger, transportation also plays a major role in creating health. Delivering the
keynote address at the 24th Annual CTS Transportation Research Conference, Ehlinger told
the crowd, “Transportation is around us every day and influences everything we do, which
makes it integral to creating the conditions for great health.”
