Thanks, Jenny. 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.

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 held in Washington, DC. This
webinar is a direct result of the conference, and features some of the key
speakers.
Panelists:
? Geoffrey Whittfield, Ph.D., MEd, Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention
? Sonja Kahlmeier, Ph.D., MSc, ETH Environ. Sc. (University of Zurich,
Switzerland)
? James Woodcock, Medical Research Council Epidemiology Unit, University of
Cambridge
Moderator: David Bassett, Jr.
