"Active transportation" is a means of getting around that is powered by human energy, primarily walking and bicycling. It is a term that expresses the key connection between healthy, active living and our transportation choices. Just as our existing motorized transportation networks connect destinations via an interconnected system of roadways that enable people to get from point A to point B, active transportation networks allow people to do the same thing by walking and bicycling. Imagine a system of trails, quiet neighborhood streets, bike lanes and cycle tracks that connect your home with your work, school, shopping, entertainment and other destinations.
