Urban traffic calming and health inequalities : effects and implications for practice  Cover Image E-book E-book

Urban traffic calming and health inequalities : effects and implications for practice / author: Olivier Bellefleur.

Summary:

"In this document, we will examine the effects of these same two approaches (described below) on health inequalities. This will enable us to identify interventions that can effectively improve population health, overall, while also reducing health inequalities. Such interventions will be distinguished from those which act on only one or the other of these dimensions." -- Page 1.
