Book excerpt: The fiscal year 1991 U.S. DOT Appropriations Act directed the Secretary of Transportation to conduct a National Bicycling and Walking Study. The five objectives of the study as specified in the Act were to: (1) Determine the current levels of bicycling and walking and identify reasons they are not better used as means of transportation; (2) Develop a plan for the increased use and enhanced safety of these modes and identify the resources necessary to implement and achieve this plan; (3) Determine the full costs and benefits of promoting bicycling and walking in urban and suburban areas; (4) Review and evaluate the success of promotion programs around the world to determine their applicability to the role required of the U.S. DOT to implement a successful program; and (5) Develop an action plan, including timetable and budget, for implementation of such Federal transportation policy. The purpose of this Interim Report is to document progress in addressing these five objectives. In dealing with each objective, this report summarizes available information, discusses what additional information is required, and outlines the approach to be used in collecting it.

Book Physical Activity and Health

Download or read book Physical Activity and Health written by and published by Jones & Bartlett Learning. This book was released on 1998 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first Surgeon General's report to address physical activity and health. The main message of this report is that Americans can substantially improve their health and quality of life by including moderate amounts of physical activity in their daily lives. Health benefits from physical activity are thus achievable for most Americans, including those who may dislike vigorous exercise and those who may have been previously discouraged by the difficulty of adhering to a program of vigorous exercise. For those who are already achieving regular moderate amounts of activity, additional benefits can be gained by further increases in activity level. [Extr. introd. 1996]

Download or read book Physical Activity and Health written by Audrey F. Manley and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 1996-11 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is the first report of the Surgeon General on physical activity and health. For more than a century, the Surgeon General of the Public Health Service has focused the nation's attention on important public health issues. Reports from Surgeons General on the adverse health consequences of smoking triggered nationwide efforts to prevent tobacco use. Reports on nutrition, violence, and HIV/AlDS - to name but a few - have heightened America's awareness of important public health issues and have spawned major public health initiatives. This new report, which is a comprehensive review of the available scientific evidence about the relationship between physical activity and health status, follows in this notable tradition. Scientists and doctors have known for years that substantial benefits can be gained from regular physical activity. The expanding and strengthening evidence on the relationship between physical activity and health necessitates the focus this report brings to this important public health challenge. Although the science of physical activity is a complex and still-developing field, we have today strong evidence to indicate that regular physical activity will provide clear and substantial health gains. In this sense, the report is more than a summary of the science - it is a national call to action.

Download or read book Bicycle Laws written by Barbara A. Scheib and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Legal rules are designed to influence behavior and balance competing needs. This report focuses on an area of state regulation that has received minimal recent attention: the laws that govern the operation of bicycles on public streets and their interaction with motor vehicles. The study provides a comparative analysis of the national model Uniform Vehicle Code and the 50 state codes, with special emphasis on the Code of Virginia. The researcher conducted a state-by-state comparison of ten specific legal issues: 1) carriage of passengers (particularly, of children by parents); 2) riding two abreast; 3) lane position; 4) method of giving turn signals; 5) use of bicycle sidepaths; 6) parental responsibility for children's violations; 7) application of traffic laws on paved shoulders; 8) mandatory safety helmet usage; 9) motor vehicle use of bicycle lanes; and 10) reflector requirements. The issues were chosen in part because they have generated significant variance in legal rules throughout the nation. Each state's rule is presented in tabular form in Appendix A of this report. Appendix B presents a sampling of state definitions of the term bicycle.
