HOW STATES ENCOURAGE BICYCLING AND WALKING. A new report published by the National Conference of State Legislators, Encouraging Bicycling and Walking: The State Legislative Role (http://www.ncsl.org/programs/pubs/summaries/014234-sum.htm) shows how state legislatures have proactively supported bicycling and walking as transportation choices, and includes discussion of Complete Streets measures considered and adopted in state legislatures. The report also looks at related economic, public, and environmental health benefits of bicycling and walking. Discussions of funding stream mechanisms, planning, infrastructure design, and safety improvements are also included. It was published in partnership with Coalition members the League of American Bicyclists and Bikes Belong (http://bikesbelong.org/ http://bikesbelong.org/ ).
