Bicycling and walking are used as the major forms of
transportation throughout much of the world. These alternatives to motorized
transportation are becoming increasingly popular in the U.S. for a variety of
reasons, including the benefits they offer to the environment, to personal health
and to community health.
In this section we provide information about why alternative
transportation is important, safety information, how to’s and information
about the infrastructure and facilities that are critical to safe and convenient
alternate transportation. We also provide information about events and presentations
that we host throughout the St. Louis bi-state area, we share stories about real
people that often choose biking and walking as their preferred modes of transportation,
and we include best practices links as additional resources.
