Journey planners can promote active, healthy and sustainable urban travel
- Environmental exposure during commuting affects daily travel experience, health and wellbeing. - People experience their surrounding environment through sounds, smells and scenery. - Pedestrians and cyclist can reduce their exposure to pollution and improve travel experience with the help of dedicated journey planners. - Green Paths routing tool promotes sustainable urban commuting by helping people to find pleasant routes while on bike or on foot. - It is a proof-of-concept type open source development that makes suggestions on low-pollution active travel routes in Helsinki capital region. - Land use and transport planning can benefit from the tool as it allows evaluating if access to healthy and pleasant urban travel is equally available in space.
