Pathways from transportation policies and investment to health behavior
Research questions:
1. What is the recent trend in the amount of time people spend on physical activity and active transportation?
2. Do changes in investments for active transportation result in a change in the proportion of active transportation relative to total physical activities?
3. To what extent do these investments influence active travel through environmental health benefits and risk factors, with a specific emphasis on traffic safety factors?
