Funding Amount

Summary
This project will use spatial analysis, transport behaviour and simulation modelling to generate policy relevant evidence on how built environments can improve population health by supporting active travel in Australia and the United Kingdom. We will estimate built environment scenarios that improve physical activity, air quality, noise pollution and road injuries and show the reduction in non-communicable disease burden by socio-economic groups from creating healthy built environments.
