1 Healthy Community Design & the Triple Bottom Line Mark Fenton Tufts University NOACA Cleveland OH Oct 2016 Why build bike lanes if no one bikes there anyway...?
2 Prosperity People Planet
3 Historical context. Health & the stickiness problem. Healthy design. The marketplace weighs in. E. 4 th Street A call to action, from pilots to policy.
4 Upright walking... See approaching predators. Free hands for foraging, carrying young. Specialization; hunting, childcare, making tools, etc. Fire + cooking food = more energy = bigger brains.
5 Pompeii Rome
6 San Francisco Hwy 101 Embarcadero Freeway 1989 earthquake damage!
7 San Francisco Hwy 101 Embarcadero Boulevard
8 Rochester s Inner Loop 2004
9 Same view 2016
10 Redevelopment concepts Actual buffered bike lane
11 N Boulevard Enhancement Area 1 Overall Project Corridor Plan Lakefront West project? Boulevard Landscape Enhancements
12 Youthful recollections
13 Changes in Walking & Cycling to School, 1969 to 2001 Ham et.al., Jour. of Physical Activity & Health, 2008, 5, % of students age Car Bus W/B W/B = Walk/Bike
14 Trends in Childhood Obesity & Overweight CDC, National Center for Health Statistics. National Health Examination Surveys
15 The real risk Nov-2009 Lenore Skenazy freerangekids.com
16 My admittedly unique perspective...
17
18 The bad news in just three numbers: 30 minutes of daily physical activity recommended (60 min. for youth). < 20 % of Americans actually meet these recommendations (thru LTPA). 365,000 estimated annual deaths in America due to physical inactivity & poor nutrition. (2 nd only to tobacco.)
19 Pre-1973 Post-1973
20 Land Use Four elements Network Safety & Access Site Design
21 1. Land use. Live, work, shop, play, learn, pray. Compact neighborhoods & shared open space. Mixed use. E.g. schools, post office, library, stores Housing above, retail below.
22 2. Network, connections: Sidewalks, bike lanes, complete streets. Greenways, trails. Affordable, frequent, accessible transit.
23 Transit riders are more physically active. Besser, Dannenberg, Amer. J. Prev. Med., 29 (4), Nov Appleton WI
24 Bicycle network Sharrow tools: American River Tr. Bike lane Protected bike lane
25 Potential Cyclists (conceptual) Portion of potential users ~33% ~60% ~7% No way, no how Interested, but concerned Likelihood of Bicycling Strong & confident
26 3. Site Market Po design: Which setting is more appealing & functional for travel on foot and by bike? Belleville
27 Site design? Akron Portland, OR Buildings at the sidewalk; parking on street or behind. Trees, benches, lighting, awnings, human scale. Bike parking, open space, plants, art, materials.
28 Possible incentives: Decrease, share parking (include bike requirement). Build-to, not set-back lines. Mixed-use, 2nd-story residential. Expedite permits. Appleton WI Neenah WI Elected & appointed officials must be supported if they are to act courageously!
29 4. Safety & access. Engineering can markedly improve safety. Median islands Increasing pedestrian and bike trips decreases overall accident & fatality rates. Roundabouts Curb extensions
30 Lane re-alignments 5 or 4 reduced to 3 Reduces collisions & severity; better for all four modes. Urbana, IL; before & after.
31
32
33 Not comfortable for drivers or pedestrians... VA NE OH But what s the standard?
34 Preferred sidewalk setback: Even a bike lane adds buffer 1.0 Fenton minimum
35 Work on 3 scales... Connections Destinations Design, safety, access
36 surgeongeneral.gov/stepitup ^ Walkable Communities. Livable Communities. Sustainable communities Smart Growth. TND Traditional Neighborhood Design TOD Transit Oriented Development CNU Congress for a New Urbanism health.gov/paguidelines >

39 BikeWalkAlliance.org nyc.gov/html/dot/downloads
40 Environmental & economic sustainability Liberty NY
41 The economic pull of healthy designs: 1. Market demand 2. Market performance 3. Developer interest 4. Quantifiable health benefits!
42 What s happening? 1 st & 2 nd generation malls & big boxes are struggling. > Belleville Rosemount Lemont Fairview Heights Employers seek vibrant, livable communities, where employee health, satisfaction, & retention are high!
43 Call to action: Take the lead Try stuff - demonstrations & pilots Institutionalize Policies & Procedures
44 Oak Park
45 Input: Listening, focus groups Photo-voice Audits Charrettes
46 Low cost options, pilot or demonstration projects. Paint & sign Curb stops & planters Paint & flexible bollards
47 Whitefish MT
48 Livingston MT farmer s market Valet bike parking
49 Improve streetscapes Street furnishings (Tinley Park) Parklet (Montpelier) WalkYourCity.org Bike parking
50 Food Park McAllen TX Festival area - Salt Lake City UT BetterBlock.org
51 Billings MT
52 Policy = Complete Streets in practice: Barnstable
53 National Association of City Transportation Officials nacto.org
54 Trails for transportation... E.g. Mayfield Village Greenway
55 MMTA vs TIA Require multi-modal transportation analysis (not just traffic impact) for all development. Typical: Turn lanes, signal light, lots of parking.
56 Kent OH Ped: Sidewalk links, building up front. Bike: Lanes, parking; employee bike share. Transit: Shelter, walkway, street crossing.
57 New paradigm... LOS ADT Level of Service ^ Average Daily Traffic Performance measures: Vehicle miles traveled. Mode split: % pedestrian, bike, & transit trips. Fewer collisions (Vision Zero)
58 E.g. Transportation funding priorities... Los Angeles Nashville
59 T4 America & APHA Case Studies t4america.org/2016/09/22/measuring-what-we-value-prioritizingpublic-health-to-build-prosperous-regions/t$
60 Planning, zoning, subdivision regulations: Less of this... More of this! E.g. Tinley Park
61 Less of this... More of this! smartgrowth
62
63 Affordable component
64 The two questions that are NOT the real problem: Technical. How do we do it? What are best practices? Financial. How do we pay for it? Where s the money? Paint & bike rack
