Abstract

This report looks at the demand for bicycling and walking from 1999 to 2002 through the eyes of the Pedestrian and Bicycle Information Center (PBIC). The Center was established in 1999 as a national clearinghouse on walking and bicycling for the US Department o Transportation through funding by the US Congress in the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century. Over the four years of our existence, we have been able to track interest in walking and bicycling through the demand we are seeing for information and through our coordination of a rapidly-growing community event called International Walk to School Day. The conclusion: walking and bicycling clearly are at the heart of what many Americans want. (Author/publisher)
