BikeWalk Virginia with cooperative assistance from the Virginia Department of Health, Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), and Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) conducted research to provide the first ever comprehensive picture of the current state of biking and walking planning, resources, accommodations, and safety in the State of Virginia. Funding for the study was provided through a safety grant from DMV.
The study consisted of two parts. Part I collected data from all counties, cities, and towns between 2006 and 2009. Part II consisted of a statistical analysis to assess the relationship between the current level of biking and walking resources and injuries to bicyclists and pedestrians involving motor vehicle collisions.
Our goal it to help communities improve their VATI score and in turn hope to make Virginia more livable and safer.
Keep up with programs, advocacy, events & legislation.
