Mobility and health

How people and goods are moved and transport infrastructure is designed has an impact  on our health.

 Infrastructure design that favours car use reduces walking and cycling, and high speeds increase risks of accidents and fatalities. Promotion of active transport modes (walking and cycling) can improve the health of people, and reduction of air pollution reduces the incidence of pollution-related health problems.
