Department: Geography",TP-576,2007,"U-Links Office and online",Minden,"Importance of built environment as a social indicator of health","This study looks at the relationship between the built environment and active transportation in the local rural community of Minden. The project involved the use of a survey with a mix of quantitative and qualtiative questions.","Previous research in active transportation mostly focuses on the urban or suburban context, with limited studies at the rural level. This study looks at the relationship between the built environment and active transportation in the local rural community of the Village of Minden. The project involved the use of a survey with a mix of quantitative and qualitative questions. The surveys were distributed in two stages: (1) in the Village of Minden using a mail in system and (2) at a local grocery store that allowed a greater representation of the more rural areas. Surveys were used to identify individuals’ active transportation patterns and the barriers to active transportation in the local area.
The results illustrate current usage patterns by local residents, as well as problems with current infrastructure in the community and barriers to active transportation. Survey results indicate that although some people walk or bike, most drive as a main form of transportation in the community. Active transportation requires linkages and connections in order to function, and distance presents significant problems for active transportation in a rural community. People would like to use the trails more often, but the availability and quality of the trails as well as sidewalks is a limiting factor to active transportation in the village. The survey findings show significant problems with the maintenance of current trails and sidewalks. Bike paths, sidewalks in the village fringes as well as a pedestrian bridge were some of the main improvements identified for making the area more conducive to active transportation.","Trent University",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"active transportation,cycling,Environment Studies,rural communities,Social and Health Studies,walking",https://database.ulinks.ca/files/original/bcd2f0762f09c536e27abbe10e2885ef.pdf,,"Trent University - Community Based Research",1,0

The Share the Road Project was a partnership between the County of Haliburton, Haliburton
Highlands Cycling Coalition (HHCC), Communities in Action Committee, HKPR District
Health Unit, Ontario Provincial Police and the municipalities of Dysart et al, Algonquin
Highlands, Minden Hills and Highlands East.
The impetus for the project came from the 2008 Cycling Master Plan for Haliburton County. This report provides a final evaluation of the 2008-2009 Share the Road Campaign in Haliburton County.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate what other communities are doing in relation to cycle-supportive activities so as to gain contextual insight for Haliburton County. What I have found is that about 50% of municipalities do have a cycling emphasis in some way, but that Haliburton County has been a pioneer in terms of extensive cycling policy implementation and promotion in rural Central Ontario. In the proceeding document, I have summarized my findings, excluding municipalities that do not support cycling in any way. With the help of my host from the Haliburton Highlands Cycling Coalition, I have created three primary questions that would provide the most useful information to other cycling planners and advocates in Ontario. In doing so, much of the material relating to the secondary questions will be responded to. Both sets of questions are outlined on the following page. All municipal information has been categorized according to County, with questions A, B and C answered wherever applicable. A brief commentary about the research process and recommendations regarding particularly useful strategies and resources will follow.

Increasing cycling in the County will require investments by the community and the government for cycling infrastructure and eductation.

Survey data collected for this project show that there is a large interest in cycling in Haliburton, however, concerns over traffic, safety, and road conditions prevent more residents from cycling. Respondents consisted mainly of full-time residents of Haliburton County probably because respondents were recruited at grocery stores during the winter months – spatially and seasonally uncharacteristic of Haliburton’s primary tourists – cottagers. Data shows a high potential for cyclo-tourism as an overwhelming majority of respondents reported that they enjoyed the scenery and environment of cycling in Haliburton County. While Haliburton exhibits a model-share consistent with most of North America – that is very low compared to European model-shares – Haliburton’s model-share is likely to improve if on and off-road infrastructure is enhanced.","Trent University",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"community,cycling,recreation,roads,Social and Health Studies,tourism,transportation",https://database.ulinks.ca/files/original/1ee9d9e59d4da59788038aea31d25497.pdf,,"Trent University - Community Based Research",1,0
