Join MPHA in meeting the candidates for Governor of Massachusetts and find out where they stand on transportation and smart growth issues across the Commonwealth.
A healthy transportation system is critical to advancing public health and health equity. It can support public health by:
- Promoting physical activity through walking and biking
- Reducing emissions and the impact of asthma and other respiratory conditions
- Reducing injuries and deaths from traffic accidents
- Connecting residents to economic opportunities and resources such as healthy food stores and health care facilities.
The election of a new governor is a huge opportunity to improve the health of cities and communities across the state!
