14 HOW IS WALKING BENEFICIAL?

18 Walking positively impacts our health, environment, economy, and society at large. Walking can lower individual and public costs, increasing neighborhood s property value, increasing new jobs, generating tourism, and promoting economic growth. (Murphy, J. and M. Delucchi, 1998; McCann, B., 2000; Bohl, C.C. and D. Schwanke, 2002; Litman, T., 2009; Cortright, J., 2009; Garrett-Peltier, H., 2011; Litman, T., 2013; US Department of Transportation, 2012;)
19 Walking positively impacts our health, environment, economy, and society at large. Walking can help achieve equity objectives by allocating public resources to all people. (Jacobs, J., 1961)
