Transportation, land use, and community design professionals have an important role to play in establishing environments that allow citizens to engage in lifestyle physical activity. The planning processes that these professionals engage in should be conducted in a way that promotes all modes of transportation, including walking, bicycling, the use of mobility devices, and mass transportation.
