Peel adopts active transportation plan

“This plan demonstrates a shift in understanding on transportation from a focus on moving people in cars, and moving goods in trucks, to one that considers that, but balances it more with different modes of transportation — in particular, with active transportation and public transit,” said Dr. Eileen de Villa, Peel's associate medical officer of health. “It is good for health, it is good for the environment and, frankly, it is more economical.”
