Increasing Active Transportation in York Region? Draft Report

The following report profiles active transportation in York Region and suggests mechanisms to increase its activity based on actions taken by other jurisdictions. Decima Research prepared the report and has also conducted numerous studies of cycling activity in several Ontario municipalities. These reports, along with similar publications on walking research (detailed in the Appendix), have been combined  to provide a sample of some of the key findings that are most relevant to York Region. These key findings help provide a profile of York Region from other jurisdictions. The report will also give necessary background information allowing York Region to take important steps that will promote active transportation among its residents.
