Transportation

Transportation plays a vital role in shaping health outcomes by affecting access to jobs, schools, grocery stores, parks, and healthcare facilities. Safe, reliable, and affordable transportation options—such as public transit, walking paths, bike lanes, and accessible roads—enable people to engage in daily activities and maintain their independence. Transportation also influences physical activity levels, traffic safety, and exposure to pollution. Investing in equitable transportation systems can enhance community connectivity, safety, and overall health.
