Trailnet partners with communities in the Promise Zone through our partnership with Integrated Health Network and Empowered and Thriving Communities to provide technical assistance to community-based groups to make physical activity more accessible. Together with community partners, we find opportunities to improve street connectivity and identify sidewalk needs, bicycle infrastructure needs, transit access, thereby improving access to physical activity and creating activity-friendly routes.

- Street connectivity
- Sidewalk and trail infrastructure
- Bicycle infrastructure
- Public transit infrastructure and access
