Bicycle/Pedestrian
|
As a society,
our waistlines are expanding and our health is threatened by the
hours we spend behind the wheel of a car. What could be a more
welcome change than a community that encourages us to be more
active as a part of everyday life? This toolbox is full of
strategies that inspire people to bicycle and walk more often,
that keep pedestrians and bicyclists safe, and that make
neighborhoods more vibrant and livable. |
