Ohio Multimodal Design Guide

[John Cinatl]

Greeting All

Ohio DOT, in conjunction with the Toole Design folks,  have just published their Multi-Modal Design Guide.

I've just skimmed over it but so far I like what I've seen - not surprising since the Toole group is nationally know for their excellent bike and ped guides.

Greeting All

A former bike colleague from our former CBAC group (you probably know her) is now working with this group in regard to sustainable communities and transportation. She asked me to pass this info along to my network which I am glad to do.

So if you have an interest in this topic please join in .....................  better yet drop her a line and say hi.

Thanks

ABOUT World Transport Policy and Practice

World Transport Policy & Practice was published between 1995 and 2020 by John Whitelegg in England. It was a quarterly journal which provided a high quality medium for original and creative work in world transport. Since May 2022, it is being published by Transportation Choices for Sustainable Communities (transportchoice.org). Journal articles describe how the results of specific policies and practices can be applied to improve quality of life, equity, social justice, and moreover the harm caused by motorized traffic worldwide, both directly due to death and injuries on the roads but also the deaths attributable to outdoor air pollution, much of which is from traffic emissions. To help it to reach a wide readership, encompassing advocates and activists as well as academics and advisers, WTPP is available free of charge as PDF files on the internet. See our website  at worldtransportjournal.org. Some past issues can be downloaded here and at the links below and a permanent home for the full archive is being sought.
