Whoever leaves his car frequently in the garage benefits not only the environment, but also himself: regular physical exercises contribute to our well being. In this sense transportation policy marries health prevention.
VIANOVA, with partners from all the seven Alpine countries, is a project that aims to reduce car traffic and at the same time to motivate towards non-motorised and sustainable modes of transport based on physical activities (cycling & walking).
A cross-sectoral approach (land use planning - mobility – health) will combine measures that fit perfectly to the sensible Alpine Space.
Demonstrations will be implemented on three different levels:
1) Improvement of objective situation of public space for physical activities (air quality, infrastructure, barriers, organisation, intermodality)
2) Improvement of perception of public space for walking and cycling
3) User motivation for sustainable model choice.
