SUMMARY:Funding Walkable and Bike Friendly Communities
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER NOW\nCreating walkable and bikable communities is a successful strategy for maintaining and restoring economic vitality and improving public health in a community. \nThe presence of sidewalks and bike facilities increases property values and commercial rents. Sidewalks and connected\, well-maintained pedestrian networks allow people to safely and conveniently patronize local shops\, businesses\, and restaurants. Improved pedestrian and bicycle safety encourages fewer motorists\, leading to less road congestion\, gas consumption and cleaner air. \nIncreasing physical activity by incorporating walking and bicycling trips into daily activity is part of an active lifestyle that is associated with decreased risks for heart disease\, diabetes\, hypertension\, and colon cancer\, as well as an increased sense of mental well-being.Attend this workshop to learn more about the funding opportunities available to help create and maintain safe\, walkable and bikeable environments in your town that provide opportunities for people of all ages and abilities to travel safely. \nWorkshop topics include: \n\nTips and strategies for applying for federal and state grants that can make your project a reality. In particular\, tactics for applying to the grant solicitations from the NJ Department of Transportation in Safe Routes to School and Transportation Alternatives funding.\nSustainable Jersey actions aimed at implementing pedestrian and bike friendly policies and environmental changes.\n\nPresenters include: \n\nElise Bremer-Nei\, NJ Dpartment of Transportation (NJDOT)\nTrish Sanchez\, NJ Safe Routes To School (NJSRTS) Resource Center\nRenee Haider\, Sustainable Jersey\n\nParking Information: \nThere is a parking garage located at 125 Broadway\, and several other parking lots surrounding the area\, all for different fees.
